Oct. 5, 2023 (Lincoln, Neb.) – The location for the North Platte meeting has changed to Best Western Plus
Conference Center, located at 3201 S Jeffers St.
The Nebraska Broadband Office announced the availability of the new Nebraska Broadband Availability

across the state.
As part of the map availability, there will be ongoing public engagement across the state including a
series of eight public meetings and an open comment period from Sept. 14 to Oct. 14. During the
open comment period the public will be asked to provide comments on the broadband map, including
searching their addresses to verify level of highspeed internet access at their homes/businesses.
Opportunities are available to submit public comments online https://ndot.info/community, or in-person
at one of the following meetings hosted by the Nebraska Broadband Office:
• North Platte, Oct. 9, 4-6 p.m.
Best Western Plus Conference Center, 3201 S Jeffers St.
• McCook, Oct. 10, 5-7 p.m.

Meetings are open to the public and will include a map-focused discussion, as well as provide an
opportunity to learn about broadband programs and buildout across the state and provide input into
digital access, affordability and need for technical skills to create equitable distribution of resources.
For those who are unable to attend the meetings or open comment periods and want to learn more
