Fiber-optic is arriving!
The Hague is the first city to have Fiber-optic in the Netherlands! Yeay!!
As you may know, the most parts of the city is covered by brick pavements. Herringbone layout is very beautiful.
I have thought previously that it was fixed permanently and when thing like an earthquake happens(very unlikely here though), it would be nightmare to dig all out by shovel car. Then Of course, new bricks to lay would be too far too expensive and the beauty would be lost…
No. It isn’t the case!
The pavement’s bricks are laid on sand and a team of people like four or five can dig up a street by scoop, can insert cables & put the bricks in place within a half day.
We had our pavement removed in early December for the Fiber-optic cables. They came in the morning, by the end of the day all bricks were put back as perfect Herringbone.
Not only Fiber-optic came, the uneven surfaces were laid newly, it looks neat and beautiful !
Yeay! It’s very promising. We will have super fast internet soon in the Hague!
