Looks like Lawton, Fort Sill will be getting a new internet and cable company sometime in 2022.

At this time the City of Lawton and community leaders are addressing the current city ordinances as they relate to internet/television providers and working on the franchise agreement with the new company. If all goes well we could have an all-new provider in 2022. Hopefully, the process goes smoothly and there are no issues or set backs going forward.

So who is this new company that's coming to town? The name of the company is called Bluepeak.

You can get more information about them at the official website and on their Facebook page. Once all the details are ironed out Bluepeak will begin the process of laying fiber optic cable both in-ground and above.
