Fulshear Broadband and 5G Planning

Challenge: Fulshear is a rapidly growing City just outside of Houston. With rapid growth, the need for a broadband strategy was imperative. The Fulshear broadband and 5G planning needs included:

• ROW Management
• Ubiquitous coverage
• Internal City broadband needs
• Economic Development needs
• 5G and Smart City preparations
• The ability to participate in and manage opportunities to extend broadband infrastructure.

City leadership wanted to begin by understanding the current Fulshear broadband issues.

Solution: HR Green assisted the City by surveying citizens and businesses, meeting with public and private stakeholders, and reviewing their current policies. With a baseline of information provided by HR Green, the City is taking the next steps of defining a Fiber Master Plan, developing goals and vision for broadband in the community, and finding consensus on the City’s role in their broadband infrastructure.
