2020 End of Year Construction Update
1:25PM December 29, 2020
ElbertonNET has been working in the month of December to
complete two new zones for service. The
first located in the northern part of the county is the zone for
Coldwater-Peachtree-Press Mann Roads.
That node was activated in late September, but work continued to build
it out. The zone was completed just
before Christmas, and about two dozen new customers have joined ElbertonNET.
The second zone just completed on December 29 was the Ruckersville-Harpers
Ferry Rd. area. That node was activated
last week, and new customers will be installed before the New Year’s holiday. We welcome everyone joining us from the
Ruckersville area.
Those in Southeast Elbert County may have noticed white
bucket trucks working along the Calhoun Falls Highway or Bobby Brown State Park
Road. Those crews are working to bring
the main line trunk fiber optic cable all the way from the end of the project
near Bobby Brown Park back to Elbert Street on the Four Lane. Work on this main line will be completed
soon. Therefore, the zone located on
Lower Bobby Brown State Park Road—Key Club—Fish and Game Club will be ready for
service very soon. This could happen by
the first part of February, weather permitting.
After this zone for Lower Bobby Brown and The Clubs is
complete, we will be ready to move to the next zone for service. As of today, no other zone has reached its
construction goal to 100%. The
Ricetown-Cooter Creek area is close and only needs five more subscribers. But other zones are getting close too.
Remember only PAID pre-registrations count toward the construction
goal. We have enough persons who have
registered on our website for the Bakers Ferry Road zone and the Ricetwon zone
to reach their construction goals 100%, but not everyone paid the $100
pre-registration fee. If you are one of
those persons and are now ready to complete your pre-registration, please do so
as soon as possible so your neighborhood can get connected early.
Give us a call at 706-213-FAST (that’s 706-213-3278) if you
have any questions about completing your pre-registration.
We look forward to serving you in 2021, and Happy New Year
from all of us at ElbertonNET!
