Viewers in St. Tammany Parish will be the first in area to get U-verse, the wired AT&T television service currently available in 105 markets in 19 states.
AT&T will officially announce the local U-verse rollout Friday and customers in Mandeville, Covington and Slidell can begin placing installation orders Monday.
Franchise agreements are not yet in place for Jefferson and Orleans parishes.
"We have every intention of bringing it to all the areas of metro New Orleans we can," said Sue Sperry, an AT&T spokeswoman.
