This project is being conducted under the Telecommunications Act and is NOT a City of Lafayette project. The project will increase access to next-generation multi-gigabit high speed internet services for Lafayette residents and businesses. Intrepid Fiber doesn’t provide internet service directly to consumers but rather builds out fiber networks then partners with leading internet service providers.
Fiber Optic Cable
As part of the project, Intrepid will be working in the right-of-way throughout Lafayette neighborhoods. As Intrepid moves around the city, Lafayette residents will be notified of any work by no parking signs and door hangers. Residents can also anticipate the following as Intrepid arrives in their neighborhood:
• Preliminary survey – Before construction, crews will conduct area surveys (including potholing), mark utility locations, and communicate with residents through door-knocking and door hangers.
• Installation – During the installation phase, crews will prioritize community safety and minimize disruption while installing fiber along designated routes, using either existing utility poles or underground conduits.
• Cleanup – Restoring landscaping to its former or improved state is essential during construction. Crews will provide watering instructions to nurture any new seed or sod.
Other Intrepid cities in Colorado include Broomfield, Columbine Valley, Dacano, Fort Lupton, Frederick, Greenwood Village, Louisville, Littleton, Northglenn, Superior, Thornton, & Westminster.
For more information on what to expect, visit Intrepid’s Construction page. Intrepid has also established a Lafayette map on its website, which will detail the areas where work is planned and underway, as well as where service is available following the network expansion.
