The Last Mile Broadband for Underserved Portions of Cassia, Jerome, and Twin Falls Counties projects plan to bring affordable wireless broadband service to rural, underserved communities in south-central Idaho. The projects intend to expand Digital Bridge Communications’ existing network by adding a total of 16 towers, 64 miles of new fiber, and 12 microwave links. The project also proposes to offer speeds of up to 3 Mbps using both fixed and mobile wireless technology, as well as directly connect approximately 25 community anchor institutions at no charge in each county.
