LivCom to build 15 miles of fiber network in Polk County

Polk County Commissioners Court has selected Livingston Communications (LivCom) for a direct capital funding award to defray the cost of the broadband deployment in Polk County. The County’s request for proposal was focused on projects that could provide high speed, fiber connections on five specific areas in the County.

Polk County’s primary priority is to create a backbone to facilitate current and future connections along state highway 59, Highway 146 and Highway 190 through high traffic and developing areas. LivCom is currently building fiber in many parts of Polk County and this recent award will address a number of these County priority areas.

“This partnership with the County will help us to accelerate our fiber deployment to our service area. We are looking forward to what can be achieved in 2023,” LivCom’s General Manager Jeff Wolf said in a news statement.

The LivCom project will build almost 15 miles of fiber network inside its Polk County service area with the work to be completed in 2023. LivCom’s excellence in constructing and maintaining fiber networks over the last seven years, coupled with their outstanding customer service contributed to Polk County’s award.

“LivCom has been actively deploying fiber in the Southeast Texas region and are excited to work with Polk County to create middle mile fiber internet that can be used to serve homes and businesses in Polk County,” said Deb Rand, LivCom CEO.
