BARGERSVILLE, Ind.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Metronet today announced the Town of Bargersville will soon have access to Metronet’s ultra-high-speed 100 percent fiber optic internet. Metronet, the nation’s largest independently owned, 100 percent fiber optic provider, will fully fund the construction project through a multimillion-dollar investment that will bring Bargersville residents and businesses to the frontline of modern technology.
Construction has begun in the Southview and Morris Meadows subdivisions and will expand rapidly over the next two years with the first customers online in the fall of 2022. As construction progresses through the community, customers may sign up for presale, which will indicate their interest and prioritize installation when available.

“Bargersville is one step closer to becoming a Gigabit City and we are looking forward to working with Metronet to provide another choice for our residents and businesses,” said Kevin Killinger, Utilities Manager for Town of Bargersville. “With the implementation of Metronet’s 100 percent fiber optic network, the Town of Bargersville will experience the benefits of modern technology for years to come.”
Metronet brings fiber optic services directly to homes and businesses in underserved communities in America with affordable, symmetrical speeds up to 10 Gigabits with no long-term contracts. The company expects its network to be available to more than one million residential households and business locations in the near term, providing more service options to hundreds of communities.
