Metronet, recognized by PCMag as the fastest major ISP in the nation for 2023 and 2024, has announced that Westminster residents and businesses will soon have access to its ultra-high-speed, 100% fiber-optic internet. With a $34 million investment in digital infrastructure, Westminster will become the second community in Colorado to offer residential multi-gigabit speeds of up to five gigabits and business speeds of up to 10 gigabits.
Construction is slated to begin this fall, with the first customers expected to be connected by spring 2025. This investment will provide more choices for internet providers and access to symmetrical fiber-optic internet with ultrafast upload and download speeds.

“We are excited to welcome Metronet’s state-of-the-art fiber-optic internet to Westminster,” said Mayor Nancy McNally. “As a small business owner, I know that access to fast, reliable internet is crucial for our community. Metronet’s advanced network will drive economic development and enhance the quality of life, keeping Westminster at the forefront of the digital future.”
“Metronet is proud to expand 100% fiber-optic internet access to more Coloradans with our upcoming network in Westminster,” said Kris Smith, Metronet’s vice president of city relations. “High-quality broadband is essential in today’s connected world. Our ultra-fast, reliable, and affordable fiber-optic network offers the seamless connectivity customers deserve.”
Once construction begins, Westminster residents will see Metronet trucks in their area. They will receive mail communications about construction activities 30 days before the start date, along with yard signs to inform them of upcoming work. Metronet crews will be identifiable by ID tags and branded vehicles.
Metronet also plans to hire local management, sales, customer service professionals, and service technicians to support the Westminster area. Interested individuals can visit metronet.com/careers to explore available positions.
