Middle Mile
The Oklahoma Broadband Office is administering a Middle Mile program to help reach hard to serve last-mile connections, including homes, businesses and Community Anchor Institutions. Projects will be funded through the ARPA State and Local Fiscal Recovery fund.
Middle mile infrastructure is the highway or interstate of the internet — they're fast roads that carry data from regional hubs to local areas.
Note: The application window has not yet been opened for this program.
