CRETE, Neb. -- ALLO Fiber will be starting construction in Crete on July 31.

The 100% fiber-optic network will have a groundbreaking ceremony with Crete's mayor and city officials.

This will be held at 9:30 a.m. at Crete City Hall.

This project starts after working closely with the city to complete the necessary agreements, and ALLO has partnered with local contractors to build the fiber-optic network.

The press release said that teams will starting constructing ALLO's fiber infrastructure throughout Crete. Residents and businesses will get an advanced notice of necessary work in yards and easements through the mail. ALLO teams may also knock on doors to explain the process and answer any questions.

The fiber investment ensures that Crete will have world-class service by providing businesses, residents, and governmental entities with exceptional internet, TV, and phone solutions over ALLO's network.

Expected construction process:

ALLO designs the fiber-optic route to provide service to businesses, homes, and governmental entities.
ALLO partners with contractors to install underground ductwork.
ALLO accesses each splice vault and pedestal to splice the fiber that will connect to your business or home and then tests the connection to ensure fast, symmetrical upload and download speeds.
When you order internet, TV, and phone service, ALLO connects the fiber from the pedestal to your home or business before your service installation.

"We realize the construction phase of our fiber project will be disruptive, but ALLO is committed to minimizing this for the community," said Dave Miller, ALLO regional general manager. "We understand the importance of making a good first impression so that residents and businesses will want to utilize our service and tell their friends about us."
