ON RAMP:
Visitors in downtown Cedar Rapids will soon have a new on ramp to the information super highway. ImOn Communication is funding the Wi-Fi network, including infrastructure and maintenance costs. The downtown district has not had access to free Wi-Fi since 2008, when flooding ended a network established by non-profit Corridor Free Wireless.
