We have seen the trucks, cable, and construction as well. You aren\u2019t alone. What you are seeing is IdeaTek beginning its rollout of gigabit fiber internet in Emporia. The company, based in Buhler, announced in early August that they were starting construction and making a $14 million investment to bring fast, 100% fiber connectivity to Emporia.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Construction began between Union St. and Commercial St. from 12th Ave. to 7th Ave. IdeaTek says certain neighborhoods will be able to access service this fall. The company plans to expand to 10,000 locations across Emporia by the end of 2026. So it is likely you will see construction throughout the city for quite some time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAt IdeaTek, we\u2019re committed to bringing our high-speed fiber internet to every corner of Kansas, and we\u2019re excited to make it a reality in Emporia,\u201d said Daniel Friesen, IdeaTek\u2019s co-founder and chief innovation officer. \u201cTrue fiber internet is the gold standard in internet connectivity. We believe everyone deserves the best possible online experience, whether you\u2019re casually browsing or online gaming. Our fiber network delivers unparalleled reliability. IdeaTek\u2019s ultimate goal is to provide fiber to all Kansas residents because fiber is hands-down the best technology for high-speed broadband.\u201d<\/p>\n
Friesen also pointed out IdeaTek\u2019s confidence in customer satisfaction and the quality of services they will provide throughout the city.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u201cWe\u2019re so confident you will prefer our service over others that we don\u2019t require contracts,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019ll provide you with the best service, so we\u2019re not worried about you leaving.\u201d<\/p>\n
