Sky Fiber Internet to Break Ground on Major Fiber Expansion in Silver Springs & Stagecoach
State and Federally Supported Project Advances Broadband Access in Northern Nevada
Silver Springs, NV – Sky Fiber Internet, a Northern Nevada-based provider with over 20 years of service to the region, will officially break ground on a major fiber infrastructure expansion in Silver Springs and Stagecoach on April 10, 2026.
Backed by funding from the Capital Projects Fund (CPF) and State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLRF) as part of Nevada’s High Speed Nevada (HSNV) Phase III initiative, this project represents a meaningful investment in the future of connectivity for rural Nevada communities.
The expansion will bring high-speed, reliable fiber internet to areas historically overlooked by large providers, supporting local businesses, students, families, and long-term regional growth.
“This is a meaningful moment not just for our company, but for the communities we’ve been a part of for over two decades,” said Garry Gomes, CEO of Sky Fiber Internet. “We live and work here too. We know how important reliable internet is for everyday life in Northern Nevada, and we’ve always believed that where you live shouldn’t determine the quality of your connection.”
Founded in Northern Nevada more than 20 years ago, Sky Fiber Internet has grown from a small local provider into a trusted part of the region’s communications infrastructure. Built on a foundation of local support, dependable service, and a commitment to doing right by the communities it serves, the company is now helping lead the deployment of next-generation broadband across the state.
“Access to high-speed internet is essential for Nevada’s future,” said Britta Appel, Director of OSIT. “Projects like this demonstrate the impact of strong partnerships in bringing critical infrastructure to communities that need it most.”
The new fiber network will deliver significantly improved speeds, performance, and reliability for residents and businesses throughout the region. As the network expands, additional homes and businesses in surrounding areas may also have the opportunity to connect, further extending access to dependable high-speed internet.
The groundbreaking event will bring together representatives from the Nevada Office of Science, Innovation and Technology (OSIT), local elected officials, the Silver Springs Chamber of Commerce, and community members—reflecting the collaborative, community-driven effort behind this project.
Sky Fiber continues to expand its fiber footprint across Northern Nevada, with additional projects planned in Yerington, Smith Valley, Eureka, Washoe Valley, Reno, and surrounding areas as part of its long-term commitment to the region.
