RIVERTON Wyo. (May 13, 2026) — Visionary Broadband is beginning construction this month on a new 5-gigabit fiber internet network that will reach 4,080 residential and business properties across Riverton.
The five-phase project, which is funded fully by Visionary, is scheduled to begin on May 25 and be completed on Dec. 11. Homes and businesses with access to the new network will have the opportunity to choose internet services through Visionary once the project is complete.
“Fast, dependable internet is in the background, assisting in how we live, work and learn today,” said Brian Worthen, CEO of Visionary Broadband. “Whether you are a student at Central Wyoming College, a health care provider or you own your own business, there is a digital app that requires more reliable internet than ever.”
The network growth is part of a broader effort to improve internet equality across the remote Western U.S., allowing further industry and economic opportunities for communities often left behind due to the difficult landscape and terrain.
The future-proof fiber network will provide the capacity needed for remote work and learning, telehealth, business growth, emergency and weather service, supporting Riverton’s long-term economic growth and competitiveness for decades to come.
Visionary has built fiber connections to 80,000 homes and businesses across the Rocky Mountain Region since 2023, and its fiber network will surpass more than 100,000 addresses by the end of 2026.
