In this month's edition of City Update, we'll cover:

City of Loveland Transit (COLT) recently launched expanded service with three new bus stops in the Town of Johnstown near the Johnstown Plaza Shopping Center.

The stops are located at Ronald Reagan Boulevard and Thompson Parkway, Trade Street and Ronald Reagan Boulevard, and Union Street and Larimer Parkway.

At the start of a new year, many of us think about resolutions that will improve our health, productivity, and quality of life. But there’s one simple upgrade that can transform your daily routine: switching to fiber-optic broadband. Choosing fiber is a commitment to smoother, faster, and more reliable living in 2026.

If your goal for the new year is to reduce stress, increase efficiency, or simply enjoy a smoother online experience, making the switch to Pulse Fiber is a smart, modern resolution – one that elevates every digital moment in 2026. 

Your registration into the NOCO Alert emergency system enables us to provide you with critical information quickly in a variety of situations such as severe weather, flood, wildfire, missing persons, and evacuations of buildings or neighborhoods.

You will receive time-sensitive messages wherever you specify, such as your home, mobile or business phone, email address, text message, and more. You pick where, you pick how.

Plus, there is no cost for this service. Your information is protected and will not be shared or distributed. Already registered? Log on and make sure your contact information is correct.
