123NET Launches Long-Haul Fiber Route Connecting Grand Rapids and Lansing, Michigan
Briefly

This expansion represents a pivotal moment as it not only connects Grand Rapids with Lansing but also serves as the essential final segment in our broader project to link Detroit and Chicago.
The new route will stand apart for several key reasons. Rather than simply following the shortest path between Grand Rapids and Lansing, the route will extend north and south to reach underserved and unserved communities.
123NET is applying for Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment grant funding to bring last mile connectivity to serve the residents along this transformative network path.
Currently there is a fiber route connecting Grand Rapids and Lansing, but that fiber is over two decades old, has a limited number of fibers and includes extensive aerial segments.
