Wireless Broadband Access
Connected Nation has partnered with the Ohio Department of Transportation's Office of Transit to release an invitation to bid for the expansion of fixed wireless broadband service in targeted counties.
Fixed wireless internet service providers, community organizations, rural transit agencies or organizations collaborating on a public/private partnership or any individual are encouraged to bid on the development, construction and operation of a fixed wireless system or other acceptable broadband network.
The targeted counties include Carroll, Guernsey, Harrison, Morgan, Monroe, Muskingum, Perry, Pike, Scioto and Washington.
The intent of this invitation to bid is to provide funding for fixed wireless networks that will provide coverage to areas in the targeted counties where mobile coverage is not known to exist.
Below are the ITB documents; any questions may be directed to Charles Spann, Director, Engineering and Technical Services, Connected Nation, at 606.748.3343.
