It's been an honor to serve on the Broadband Task Force with leaders of the Hampton Roads community. Many thanks to Task Force Chair and Virginia Beach City Council member Ben Davenport (left center), appropriately nicknamed "Broadband Ben" by his colleagues, a good friend of VWU and candidate for mayor. A 288-pound fiber optic splice enclosure, like the one pictured, will be used at the connection point on Wesleyan Drive, not far from the VWU entrance. Pictured with us are Dave Hansen (far left), Virginia Beach City Manager, and Bob Crum, Executive Director of the Hampton Roads Planning District Commission and Hampton Roads Transportation Planning Organization.
