Moving forward in West Des Moines

Last night, the West Des Moines City Council once again confirmed its commitment to bringing fast reliable internet and choice to the residents of their city. The vision of this project — a city-wide network that offers competition and choice in their internet services — is becoming reality. At Google Fiber, we believed in that vision and its promise since our first conversations with the city. We’re excited to be one of the first tenants on this network, and we’re looking forward to providing West Des Moines with more than one way to get online.

Thank you again to the city for their hard work to make this happen. We know it hasn’t been easy. Google Fiber is very close to completing the necessary technical requirements to connect customers to the first section of the network — expect us to open signups for service in sections of the northeast corner of the city in the next few months.  We’re also close to finishing construction on our retail location in Valley Junction and look forward to welcoming West Des Moines to come check us out there soon!
