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 ([email protected]) 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)."
