Rural communities in Saline County will soon have a new option for broadband internet. Nex-Tech, an information technology company, announced Tuesday that it is making progress in a project in rural Saline County to route fiber optic cables and become a local option for high-speed internet. Nex-Tech’s broadband service is a step toward one of the County’s goals in utilizing American Rescue Plan Act funding. Among several others, the issue of access to broadband internet for Saline County’s rural residents has been a focus of the board of commissioners.
