Thornton, Colo., Feb. 20,
2024 /CNW/ - Ting Internet, a division of Tucows
(NASDAQ: TCX) (TSX: TC), has announced that it will be bringing its
high-speed, reliable 2-gigabit fiber internet to Thornton, Colorado.
Known for its world-class customer support and dedication to the

Centennial, Colorado Springs, and
the Western Slope. With Ting's symmetrical residential internet
plans starting at $89 per month,
Thornton residents can enjoy fiber
internet speeds of up to 2,000 megabits per second (Mbps). Ting
also offers fully customizable plans tailored to the needs of
businesses, enterprises, homeowners' associations, and multi-family
dwellings, which can be created in collaboration with Ting's
enterprise team.
"Investing in fiber internet isn't just about faster downloads,
it's about building regional economic vitality. A fiber network in
Thornton means long-term economic
opportunities and resilience that will benefit both residents and
businesses for years to come," said Deb
Walker, Community Engagement and Public Affairs Manager,
Ting. "Ting is proud to help build a brighter, more prosperous
future for Thornton by bringing
our 2-gig fiber internet and unparalleled customer service to the
city."
Ting will lead the city-wide build in Thornton with plans to provide service to
nearly 60,000 addresses, ensuring that residents across the city
can benefit from its reliable fiber internet. As part of the
agreement, Ting has committed to expanding the city's network
infrastructure by 50,000 ft and will also be providing free Wi-Fi
service to at least four public parks.
"For years, people in the city of Thornton have told us they want options and
competition for high-speed broadband services in our city. We could
not be happier that we reached agreement with Ting to come in and
provide their 2-gigabit service to the residents and businesses in
Thornton," said Mayor Jan Kulmann. "Ting brings a reputable track
record for providing quality service and we believe our partnership
with them will enhance the quality of life for residents in
Thornton."
The fiber internet service provider anticipates network
construction to start in March of this year, with internet service
becoming available in initial neighborhoods by June 2024. Ting expects to complete construction
by the end of 2028. The network build in Thornton will also create new jobs in the
