Zayo Group Holdings, Inc., which provides communications infrastructure services, announced Tuesday that it plans to construct a new long haul fiber network between Columbus, Ohio, and Pittsburgh, Penn.
The company will begin construction on the route this quarter and expects to be complete it in 2020.
The project will span more than 200 route miles from Columbus to Wheeling, W.Va, Washington, and Pennsylvania.
The new route will provide reduced latency and enable customers to connect to Cincinnati, Indianapolis, and Chicago via Zayo’s existing fiber network, the company said.
“The build is driven by a customer’s need for a physically diverse route from existing providers connecting these two strategic markets,” Steve Orlando, senior vice president of Central Region at Zayo, said. “The expansion will provide a superior option for reliable, high-capacity fiber connecting data centers and contact centers in important population centers.”
Zayo noted that Pittsburgh’s economy has become increasingly diversified over the past two decades, citing the city’s manufacturing, healthcare, higher education, tourism, financial markets, banking, and technology industries.
