Evergreen Internet Starts Twin Lakes Fiber Build, Targeting Spring 2027 Service Launch

Summary
Late this summer, Evergreen Internet will begin building a fiber-optic network for North and South Twin Lakes, with work expected to start in September and customer installations planned for spring 2027.
The project is meant to bring future-ready broadband to the lake communities, though the company said final network design and service details are still under review.
Evergreen — a new partnership between Lehigh Valley Cooperative Telephone Association and Webster-Calhoun Cooperative Telephone Association — said the shoreline's dense development makes construction unusually challenging.
Property owners are being asked to authorize free initial fiber drops to homes and businesses during construction; signing the form does not require them to buy service.
Central Cable Contractors will handle construction and Vantage Point Solutions will provide engineering as the partners extend service beyond the 25 rural communities they already serve.
