Hello, Platteville Community.

We continue to make progress in Platteville! Our construction crews have been busy building since the ground thawed and our technician teams’ schedule is filling up with installations for new customers. Despite the busy spring, we’re continuing to push forward and are still scheduling installations and completing construction for new areas.

See what people are saying about our service in Platteville so far!

Construction and installations continue to move along despite the weather!

Be on the lookout for exciting news about a significant milestone we’re about to reach!

Despite some supply chain delays, we have had a great season overall building and connecting neighborhoods in Platteville. Even though the ground is now frozen, we are still actively planning and preparing for our continued construction in the spring.

We have also launched a map to help show you which roads and neighborhoods are ready to connect Astrea service and which ones are on the way! Check out the map below to see where your home is in our construction process!

Astrea is happy to announce that after a few hurdles and supply chain issues, we are back on track to bring service to over a 1,000 homes in Platteville in the next 6 months.

As we work to build new infrastructure, it’s necessary for us to place sections of fiber underground and establish equipment within the right of way on certain properties. If you observe a new stake placed in your yard, it indicates the planned placement of new equipment.

We’ll be sure to restore any damage to the soil and grass as soon as we’re able to. This timing depends on weather conditions and material availability, but please know that we will be cleaning up the mess. Once we do, it’ll be like we were never there at all. Restoration after construction is something our contractors take great pride in.

Here are a few tips to keep the grass looking great after we restore where we built:

1. Do not mow right away. Allow the new grass to get settled and establish roots.
2. Don’t mow the grass too short. Keeping the grass a little longer reduces the stress on the grass.
3. Water regularly. Keeping the area properly watered will help with growth.
4. Don’t walk on the new grass until after the first mowing.

Last week, Astrea team members had the pleasure of visiting our newest service area: Platteville, WI! Construction in the area is ongoing, and we were able to share updates on the progress and tell everyone a little bit more about who we are.

We enjoyed attending Good Morning Platteville and meeting with staff from the Platteville Regional Chamber, The Platteville Journal, and QueenB Radio!

Construction crews continue to build infrastructure in Southwest Platteville, and installation pre-scheduling for May will begin next week for those in that area. If you live in that area and receive a flyer or postcard from Astrea, please re-enter your information here to let us know you'd like to schedule an installation. 

Progress in other areas of town will take a bit longer due to supply chain constraints. While we hope to see a resolution soon, until key materials are secured we will be unable to share additional availability timeframes.

We continue to make progress on the fiber Internet build in Platteville. Construction crews are active in various parts of the community breaking ground and moving the project forward.

Construction in Platteville has begun!

We are so excited to announce that we’ve begun construction in Platteville to bring you a reliable, super-fast fiber internet connection! As we receive updates from our construction team, we’ll continue to update this page.

Astrea Platteville fiber-to-the-home build announced!

We are so excited to be building to your community. We hope that you’re still just as excited as we are. We have so much to be thankful for and we can’t wait to keep taking steps towards bringing high-speed Astrea fiber Internet to the town of Platteville. Each one of us lives by our mission to make life better and bring broadband to rural communities across Wisconsin and Michigan, and most recently, the Platteville community!
