| [Northeast] Fios in Purcellville, VA So I'm building a new house in Purcellville, VA and was getting to the point of just accepting that I wouldn't be able to get Fios because they aren't in Purcellville, but are in Leesburg which is 10 miles away. Purcellville is all Comcast. Well out visiting the new construction to check on things last night and there are a ton of workers trenching and pulling some type of cable through the ground. I ask one of them what is going on and what they are laying and he says fiber for Fios. Wow, as far as I know no other area in Purcellville has Fios but they are putting it in our new subdivision on the outside of town. Yeah for me. |

| Since VZ is the incumbent voice provider for the area and this is a new development, perhaps they decided that it wasn't prudent to install copper. It also depends upon what CO is going to service your new development...if that CO is FiOS equipped, it would account for going that route instead of copper. |

Our Purcellville neighborhood was rin with conduit for fils but 9 years later it still hasn't been installed. |

Verizon ran fiber, supposedly for FIOS over six months ago but have not offered the service. I'm in Waterford near Hamilton but have no DSL, Cable only fixed point wireless is available. |

Any information if VZ intends to complete construction within the town boundaries? The subdivision I live in does not have any remote terminals for the copper, but has fiber-optics in place from the 90s (Bell Atlantic Fiber Optic) that are probably doing nothing, running near the homes. |
