Trucks in Otis signal new broadband era

Good news for Broadband!  Utility crews in Otis are readying space on poles to begin stringing fiber-optic cable in August for a long-awaited broadband network, as reported in the Berkshire Eagle. Otis is working with Westfield Gas and Electric’s Whip City Fiber unit to build a system that will provide gigabit speed downloads to all customers.  According to the report, the area around the Otis Reservoir on the east side of town will be the first to be installed.  or more details, checkout the full Berkshire Eagle.
