Fiber Expansion to Love’s Park
The company says its planned entry into Love’s Park is part of its long-term effort to introduce new or enhanced internet services to communities across Greater Rockford. In late January of this year, i3 Broadband officially activated roughly 5,400 fiber-optic passings in the cities of Rockford, Roscoe, and Machesney Park.
i3 Broadband has commenced the early stages of launching services in and through Love’s Park in late April with the aim to activate a total of approximately 14,200 passings in Greater Rockford, including several thousand in Love’s Park, by the end of 2024. The ISP is targeting to officially launch services in Love’s Park in the coming months.
“We are fully committed to bringing our affordable, reliable, high-speed fiber-optic broadband services to residents and businesses across Northern Illinois, and we are looking forward to working alongside community leaders as we complete this latest expansion in Love’s Park,” said i3 Broadband.
