Coming Soon Zones!
Our crews are completing final construction, splicing, and testing in the areas depicted in yellow on the map below. These last steps are essential to ensure that once connected, our subscribers experience the very vest speeds and reliability that we can offer!
During the next 30 days, we will be working towards opening service sign-ups in these Coming Soon areas -- making Four States Fiber services available to 1,115 additional locations in Bowie County Texas and Miller County Arkansas.
