From GoNetspeed's October 6, 2026 announcement, reviewed October 7, 2026. GoNetspeed hasn't announced Haverhill prices or a street-by-street schedule.
Mayor Melinda E. Barrett welcomed the project as a way to bring residents and businesses new options and stronger infrastructure.
When will GoNetspeed reach my street?
Not before 2027. GoNetspeed says construction should begin in 2027, with the first customers connected as the network grows. That usually means service opens neighborhood by neighborhood rather than all at once, so some homes could wait well into the build. Joining the pre-sale list on GoNetspeed's Haverhill page is the best way to hear when your address is ready. It also helps you avoid door-to-door offers that may not be real.

What the T-Mobile deal could mean
In April 2026, T-Mobile and investment firm Oak Hill Capital agreed to form a 50/50 joint venture that combines GoNetspeed and Greenlight Networks. T-Mobile said the businesses would expand its T-Mobile fiber brand to residential customers in the Northeast. The deal is expected to close in the first half of 2027, subject to regulatory approvals.
Construction in Haverhill is also expected to begin in 2027, so by the time many homes can sign up, home service may be sold under T-Mobile's fiber brand. T-Mobile has said its fiber partnerships offer simple plans with no annual contracts, but it hasn't announced Haverhill plans or prices. Treat any branding or pricing change as possible, not confirmed.

Should you wait for GoNetspeed?
