TDS announced last month that it had launched service in Fort Atkinson, and had made its first connection in the community to the company’s high-speed, all-fiber internet.

The company noted in information released last month that construction in Fort Atkinson began last fall, and was anticipated to bring internet speeds up to 8Gig plus TV and phone service, into the community.

Within the August release, the company further noted that construction also was ongoing in other areas of Jefferson County, including the cities of  Jefferson, Watertown, and Whitewater.

“The first customers in Jefferson have been connected, while service is expected to launch soon in Watertown and Whitewater,” the August release continued.

During Thursday’s meeting, according to information released by the Greater Whitewater Committee, company representatives will be discussing the company’s plans for the city of Whitewater.
