Lumos Fiber, represented by Danielle Allen, is planning to place buried fiber along Ward Ave, Dorsey Ln, Foxgate Rd, Wards Shire Pl, Foxgate Ct, Foxwick Ct, Brook Stone Way, Foxbrook Ct, Brook Stone Pl, Foxmore Ct, Foxmoore Pl and Foxgate Pl in the City of Louisville — about 13,684 feet of 1.25" HDPE conduit with fiber pulling and splicing using directional boring. Work performed by Ledcor is slated for May 18–June 26, 2026 (weekdays, 8 AM–5 PM), and crews say they’ll do one side of the road at a time, avoid continuously blocking driveways, and move vehicles on request so interruptions should be short and local.
