Velox Announces New Partnership with Huntsville Utilities

HUNTSVILLE, AL – Velox LLC is excited to announce it has been awarded a one-year contract with Huntsville Utilities to construct fiber infrastructure bringing fiber internet advancement to their expanding systems. Scheduled to begin this month, the project will help close the digital divide and make reliable internet available to more homes.

Recently named the fastest-growing city in Alabama, Huntsville has an immediate need for rapid fiber expansion to provide better internet service for smart-city and smart-grid operations, schools, remote employees and local businesses. Headquartered in Huntsville, Velox has a team dedicated to building the fiber network that will serve our thriving community.

“We prepare our team to exceed expectations on every project, but this particular project is special to us since it’s in our own backyard,” said Jimmy Hall, president of Velox. “As Huntsville expands, there are going to be more and more communities to build out, so this project plays into the bigger picture of providing broadband and economic growth opportunities for all.”

Providing broadband infrastructure throughout Huntsville will “future-proof” the growing city, ensuring residents have access to high-tech services and quality internet as the workforce moves to an increasingly digital world. With experience tackling different terrains and environments throughout the Southeast, Velox is prepared to tailor construction plans to best meet the needs of the area.

“Our fiber infrastructure is critical to advancing our operations and providing better services to our community,” said Stacy Cantrell, vice president of engineering at Huntsville Utilities. “We’re excited to have Velox on board to help make this happen.”
