County approves new broadband construction

By Alex Walters

The Creek County Board of Commissioners approved CimTel and FiberLink’s request to partner with the county in running new underground broadband cables through a portion of the county to reach over 2000 people. CimTel and FiberLink would do the heavy lifting and lay the cables, and as lead applicant, the county would apply for the grant from the federal Broadband Infrastructure Program (BIP).
