Balfour Beatty Communities, a leading national residential real estate investment and management company, is in the process of engaging with multiple fiber optic network providers to introduce cutting-edge broadband fiber optic capabilities to its privatised military housing portfolio, starting with an initial rollout of 10,000 homes at six U.S. Army bases. This strategic upgrade is expected to significantly enhance connectivity and deliver improved digital services to military families residing in housing on base. Theresa Steele, Vice President, Project Development at Balfour Beatty Communities said: “Delivering exceptional living experiences means continuously adapting to meet residents’ evolving needs. “We are excited to bring a more reliable, robust and secure internet network to our communities for the direct benefit of our residents.” This fiber-to-the-home deployment will deliver the high-speed connectivity that has become critical for everything from schoolwork and videoconferencing to telemedicine, paying bills and watching TV. Balfour Beatty Communities currently is in various phases of development with third party providers to implement fiber-to-the-home projects in its military housing communities at Fort Eisenhower (Georgia), Fort Bliss (Texas), Fort Jackson (South Carolina), Fort Stewart (Georgia), Fort Leonard Wood (Missouri), and Fort Carson (Colorado), with plans to continue expanding access across the balance of its military housing portfolio. A spokesperson at Fort Jackson Army Housing Office said: “Fort Jackson prioritises the quality of life for soldiers assigned to the installation. Fiber technology has been standard in residential areas since the early 2000s, which is not the case on all Army installations including Fort Jackson. “Army families would benefit greatly from a much-needed upgrade to fiber optic connectivity. Not only will this improve connectivity performance in every home, it also future-proofs our partner-managed homes, increasing the overall value. Our mission units rely on a dependable fiber network to serve every mission on Fort Jackson, our housing area is overdue for this needed update.” Building, Design & Construction Magazine | The Choice of Industry Professionals
