Facebook announced the MMI project prior to starting the build. It takes a while to get all the permits and approvals to begin construction and the routes are not completed yet.
If you are interested in more detail please contact me off list (abask...@fb.com) and I can connect you to the team who is responsible for the project.

[...] "We will reserve a portion for our own use and make the excess available to others. This means you’ll start to see a Facebook subsidiary, Middle Mile Infrastructure, operating as a wholesale provider (or, where necessary, as a telecommunications carrier)."
