BRYAN, TX — On May 5, the City of Bryan announced MetroNet's fiber optic internet, TV, and phone services will soon be available to more than 90% of Bryan residents and businesses.
According to their press release, MetroNet will completely fund the building of their network throughout the Bryan community and will have a physical location with support staff in the city as well.
“As our city continues to grow, it is highly beneficial for residents and businesses to have choices for accessing fast, reliable, and affordable internet, TV, and phone services,” said Bryan Mayor Andrew Nelson. “This tremendous investment by MetroNet will make unprecedented capabilities available to everyone who lives, works, and visits our city, giving Bryan the infrastructure and competitive edge needed to attract and grow business and high‐wage jobs.
