The ARPANET project began with its seed ideas, as early as 1962. From the page below, you can read:

"First ARPANET IMP log: the first message ever sent via the ARPANET, 10:30 pm, 29 October 1969."

The direct answer to your question, then, is sometime between 1962 and October 29, 1969, depending on your definition of 'constructed'.

Who created the first public internet?

The first public internet, known as the ARPANET, was developed by the U.S. Department of Defense's Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) in the late 1960s. Key figures in its creation included computer scientist Leonard Kleinrock, who contributed to the theoretical foundations of packet switching, and Robert Taylor, who helped to secure funding and support for the project. The ARPANET became the first operational packet-switching network and laid the groundwork for the modern internet.


Was ARPANET the first to use the Internet?

ARPANet was the forerunner to the modern internet. After World War II the American Government set up the Defence Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). One of their tasks was that they had to design a communications system that would not collapse if part of it was knocked out by a bomb. ARPANet was the result of this, in about 1969. In the following decades more networks were set up and linked together. Common standards between all these systems were agreed upon and in 1989, the internet came into being.
