Quincy, MA is requesting proposals for the development of a city-owned open access fiber network
The City of Quincy is requesting proposals for the development of a city-owned open access fiber network modeled after the network in Ammon. The goal is to give residents the ability to choose an internet service provider (ISP) that best fits their budget and improve the average level of service by forcing competition among the local ISPs. The city hired EntryPoint Networks, the company which helped Ammon create their network, as a consultant for the broadband plan.
