The City of Maryville has completed a project that will make high-speed communication more accessible to Maryville’s downtown district. Maryville Utility Director, Baron Swafford recently announced the project. The City used existing infrastructure to run fiber through a utility pipeline around the downtown district. Communications companies will have the opportunity to lease the fiber in order to provide high speed communications service to residents and businesses within the area. The first company on board with the City of Maryville is Spectrum Business Enterprise Solutions. Spectrum will lease the fiber from the City in order to provide data and voice service up to 10 Gigabytes.
