Our team at Thoroughbred Construction Group is proud to be installing a 163-mile, state-of-the-art fiber optic system along the Pennsylvania Turnpike, connecting Harrisburg to Pittsburgh. The project includes laying future path, jetting high-quality fiber optic cables both underground and aerially, and splicing cables to ensure seamless connectivity.

These efforts link the fiber to numerous demarcation sites along the route, providing the turnpike with faster, more reliable communications for operations and future upgrades. Coordinating underground and aerial installations allows for maximum flexibility and efficiency, overcoming the unique challenges of both trench and above-ground work.

This project strengthens critical infrastructure, supporting traffic management, operational communications, and future technological improvements. It’s a high-level, expert installation that ensures the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commision is prepared for decades of safe and efficient operation.
