Fiber optic expansion starts: 6,385 households in Waren benefit!

A lot is happening in Waren an der Müritz: Significant work on the fiber optic expansion will begin on November 3rd, which will significantly improve the city's digital infrastructure. How wir-sind-mueritzer.de reported, PlastikPlus GmbH, a joint venture between Deutsche Telekom and the IFM Global Infrastructure Fund, will carry out the measures. The goal? The city center as well as the west and east settlements and Papenberg are to be supplied with high-performance fiber optic connections.

Around 6,385 households benefit from these new options, which are crucial not only for daily Internet surfing, but also for companies and public administration. Extensive civil engineering work over a stretch of over 39 kilometers will modernize the existing infrastructure and bring it up to date.

Planned construction work and traffic disruptions

The construction work will be carried out in several phases to minimize disruption to traffic and the neighborhood. Nevertheless, residents must expect possible traffic disruptions and short-term restrictions in public spaces. The city administration of Waren will closely monitor the progress to ensure efficient implementation of the project so that residents and companies can quickly benefit from the advantages of the new network.

But the fiber optic expansion in Waren is not just a local project. Federal Government.de recently highlighted that the expansion of fiber optic and mobile networks is of “overriding public interest”. The aim is to accelerate the digital infrastructure in Germany and make it accessible. Ultimately, citizens, companies and administrations need reliable digital networks, not least for crises such as the corona pandemic or other public challenges.

Important developments for the future

Currently, 76.5 percent of households in Germany are already supplied with gigabit connections, while fiber optic connections are available to more than 35 percent of households. In addition, over 93 percent of Germany is covered by at least one 5G network operator. These developments show how important high-performance networks are for the future. glasfarbenplus.de offers extensive information for anyone who wants to find out more about the new connection options and the progress of the project.

In summary, the course for a digital future has been set in goods. With fiber optic expansion well underway, citizens will soon have to look forward to faster and more reliable internet connections. There's something coming up - and we're excited about the progress in the next few weeks!
