GoNetspeed To Build $13.6M Fiber Network in South River

GoNetspeed will invest $13.6 million in South River to build a fiber-optic internet system. This marks the company's first project in New Jersey. Private funding will power the work. When finished, more than 10,500 residents and businesses across the borough can access symmetrical multigigabit speeds up to 6 Gbps.

Construction starts summer 2026. First connections should arrive by fall 2026.

South River launches GoNetspeed's $110 million push into six New Jersey towns. Upload and download speeds will match each other, ranging from 500 Mbps to 6 Gbps.

"Reliable, high-speed internet is no longer a luxury, but an everyday necessity. Communities like South River deserve a network that's designed for the realities of everyday life," said Richard Clark, president and CEO of the company, according to the Manila Times. "We are eager to connect South River, equipping residents and businesses with the dependable connectivity that supports growth and innovation while delivering an improved quality of life well into the future."

The Northeast's biggest independent fiber internet company operates in 11 states: Maine, Alabama, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Missouri, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, and West Virginia.

Oak Hill Capital partnered with GoNetspeed in January 2021, pumping money into faster expansion throughout Northeastern states.

Each year, the company adds thousands of new locations. Gamers have praised its speeds.
