The Ktunaxa Nation Council (KNC) has awarded the second phase of a fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) construction project to Lite Access Technologies Inc., valued at approximately $805,000.

The company was awarded the first phase of a fibre-to-the-home construction project at the first nation community Akisqnuk by the Ktunaxa Nation Council in Cranbrook, B.C., last year (see press release dated Sept. 15, 2021) for the design assist, supply and installation of the fibre build connecting all Akisqnuk community band office, health centre, recreation centre and service drops for all the homes and lots on a subdivision road.

After successfully completing phase 1, Lite Access will continue with the construction project to include an additional 17 kilometres of an in-ground backbone network, multiple highway road crossings, connectivity to a wireless tower by aerial as well as the installation of additional 37 service drops to the Akisqnuk First Nation homes.

We are extremely pleased to have been selected for this next phase, continuing what we started, and ensuring a robust project delivery for the Ktunaxa Nation Council and Akisqnuk. All of us at Lite Access look forward to a continued relationship with Ktunaxa Nation Council and Akisqnuk as we advance this critical project."
