I haven't been down that area of Portage Rd in a couple of weeks. What side of the road? Can you tell from what direction the fiber is coming from?
If this is Sprint related work, become a sponsor and you can see what tower they might be heading towards.
West side of the road towards a tower on that side.

Yup, went live last week.
This is one of the shortest towers around (rack is below the tree tops) so the coverage of this tower is smaller than others in town.
It seems they are kind of moving east to west in greater Kalamazoo....so I am hoping the towers I am around most get done soon, but I keep checking for activity...and not seeing it.
On my way around town today, there was some fiber trenching going on in front of Pfizer on Portage Road. Hoping it's good news there

Looks like the tower in Portage on the corner of Westnedge and Kilgore (behind Lowes) is broadcasting LTE now.

I saw a crain next to a tower in Portage, MI late this afternoon I had the family and kids we me, so I wasn't able to investage further. I don't know if it is a Sprint cell site or not. The tower is owned by Global Tower, LLC and has a street address of 2015 W. Centre Ave, Portage MI, 49024 (42.200139 -85.612833). Here are two pictures I took with my phone.
95% sure that's a Verizon site. Believe they're decommissioning that flag pole tower and putting up a new faux pine tree tower instead in the woods.

Looked like it. I think they were coming from around the Romence intersection and moving towards the south. I'll be going by that way again this afternoon, so I'll have to check.
