Company on track to complete major fibre project in September
Markham, ON – Xplore is celebrating another milestone in its ambitious network project in Quebec. Over 27,000 homes and businesses across the MRCs of Pontiac, Les Sources, Vallée de la Gatineau, La Tuque and Papineau are now equipped to connect to fibre Internet. More than 95 per cent of construction is now complete – a major step towards enhancing rural living in these areas.
Supported in part by Opération Haute Vitesse, Xplore’s fibre network will ultimately span 2,700 kilometres and enable more than 33,000 homes and businesses across rural Quebec to connect to Internet speeds up to one gigabit. The project is on track for completion in September.
“With each new connection, Xplore demonstrates its commitment to providing better broadband experiences to residents and businesses in the province,” said Charles Beaudet, Vice President, Government Relations. “Supported by our partners in government, we are empowering Quebec residents to make the most of rural living.”
