Tucows (NASDAQ: TCX) subsidiary Ting Internet announced it will bring its fiber internet services to local businesses and residents in Aurora, Colorado.
According to a company announcement, this will be Ting's largest network build to date and, once completed, will pass over 130,000 serviceable addresses in the city.
"We heard for years from residents that they want more choice in internet providers," said Francoise Bergan, Mayor pro-tem of Aurora. "With Ting coming to Aurora, customers will have choice and competition, which is always a winning formula."
Construction on Ting's Aurora fiber network is expected to begin early this summer, with initial internet access to start rolling out by the end of the year. Ting currently operates in seven states and 14 markets across the country.
Locally, Ting has served Centennial, Colorado since 2016, and recently announced its expansion to both Colorado Springs and Colorado's Western Slope.
"We are thrilled to bring the first city-wide fiber network to Aurora, allowing us to connect the entire community to the benefits of a network that has been purpose-built for the internet," said Jill Szuchmacher, EVP, Ting Internet. "Fiber internet provides opportunities for step-change economic development and technological resilience in communities, both of which will benefit local residents and businesses for decades to come."
