Metronet is a Reliable City Partner in Construction
For cities, the construction of a new telecommunications technology is something that happens once every half century - something they haven't experienced since coaxial cables were strung on telephone poles in the 1970s and 1980s. Putting fiber-optic cable on utility poles and underground happens neighborhood by neighborhood, yard by yard. But while these projects are highly visible, Metronet has developed the industry's best communications program, ensuring that city leaders and residents are fully informed about construction in their neighborhood before is starts.
Here's how we do it:
Dedicated city relations contact
for permitting, coordination, and weekly touchpoints.
Clear construction communications:
we have a proven method for keeping residents informed and connected throughout and after construction.
Responsive issue resolution:
construction tickets triaged within ~24 hours.
Co-branded presence:
