In Northern Colorado, most people know Centerra as a place to shop, grab a bite or go to a movie. It’s also a favorite location for corporate offices. And it has gained recognition as the region’s top-selling new-home community.

“Intrepid Fiber’s strategic investment in additional Colorado municipalities, backed by Brookfield Asset Management, represents a significant step in our nationwide fiber initiatives. Our open access network, built on a secure and dependable platform, creates enhanced opportunities for Internet Service Providers, fostering competitive pricing and delivering increased value to residents. This exciting next step in Intrepid’s Fiber’s mission to empower residents and businesses with next generation Internet marks another milestone for broadband expansion in Colorado,” Intrepid CEO Jack Waters said in a written statement.

Over the next several weeks, residents in Lafayette, Louisville and Westminster will be notified of any work by lawn signs and door hangers. Work will include:

  • Preliminary survey — Before construction, crews conduct area surveys, mark utility locations and communicate with residents through door-knocking and door hangers.
  • Installation — Crews will install fiber along designated routes, using either existing utility poles or underground conduits.
  • Cleanup — Landscaping will be restored.

Intrepid Fiber was launched in 2021 by Brookfield Asset Management.
