In 2022, Google Fiber Utah will begin installing fiber along roads throughout the city.

Were continuing to grow our network across the Wasatch Front, says Jacob Brace, Google Fiber Government and Community Affairs Manager. We look forward to connecting South Jordan residents to fast, reliable internet and expect to start offering service in some areas in early 2022.

Google Fiber will begin notifying residents and businesses before work begins in their area, and when broadband internet service will being.

Google Fiber will work to reduce the disruption and impact to our residents by using smaller trenches, said South Jordan City Public Information Officer Rachael Van Cleave.
