FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: METRONET FIBER INSTALLATION RESUMES ON ARIZOLA ROAD, CASA GRANDE AVENUE AND MCMURRAY BOULEVARD.

Starting Thursday, April 24th, and continuing for approximately two weeks, Metronet contractors will begin construction along the following roadways: 

  • Arizola Road from just south of Florence Boulevard to Cottonwood Lane, 
  • Casa Grande Avenue between Melrose Drive and Paseo de Enrique, 
  • McMurray Boulevard between Walnut Drive and Paseo de Paula.

Lane shifts will be required to allow crews to work on the right-of-way. Motorists are asked to drive with caution and reduce speeds in the cone zone. Operations will take place Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. 

During this time, residents may notice Metronet crews working in neighborhoods as they continue both aerial and underground fiber installations. All Metronet team members and vehicles will be clearly marked with the company’s logo for easy identification. 

To minimize disruption, Metronet uses state-of-the-art installation technology. In areas where utilities are overhead, crews will utilize existing utility poles. In neighborhoods with underground utilities, fiber cables will be installed using advanced horizontal drilling methods designed to limit surface impact. 

To keep the community informed, Metronet has a dedicated construction website. The site includes detailed information about the construction process, helpful videos, and a way for residents to alert Metronet of any potential concerns—such as underground sprinkler systems or invisible pet fences. 

Residents with questions about installation are encouraged to visit the Metronet website for assistance. 

The City of Casa Grande thanks residents for their continued patience and cooperation as Metronet works to bring high-speed fiber internet to homes and businesses throughout the community.
