    Verizon continues to serve its customers during the union strike

    As you may know, Verizon’s contracts with CWA and IBEW in the Northeast expired on August 1, 2015. We have been in negotiations with these unions for nearly a year discussing a variety of issues. On Wednesday April 13th at 6am the unions decided to strike.

    Verizon is prepared to serve our customers. We have trained thousands of non-union Verizon employees to carry out virtually every job function handled by our represented workforce – from making repairs on poles to responding to inquiries in our call centers. Additionally we have made other arrangements to provide sufficient coverage to handle day-to-day operations for all our customers. We plan to continue providing the excellent service that ITT46, and all our customers, currently receives. Further updates will be provided on this website and through your respective Account teams on the progress of the negotiations.

    Fiber Migration

    In an effort to provide the most efficient and robust network possible, Verizon will be removing all copper facilities from 9 central offices. Fiber to the home network will be deployed and all services will be provided over a fiber network infrastructure. The central offices affected are:

    • Ashland
    • Duxbury
    • Holliston
    • Hopkinton
    • Marshfield
    • Medway
    • Millis
    • Topsfield
    • Wayland

    The implementation process has begun. The goal is to have all services on fiber on or after December 1, 2016. After the retirement of copper facilities, Verizon will no longer offer services over copper facilities or maintain copper facilities. There are multiple project teams involved in this. The PMO will have representation on the project and all calls. Information will be provided as it is available.
