There are lots of different ways to do this. Here's a relatively simple one:

<Location />
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from intranet.example.com
ErrorDocument 403 /underconstruction.html
</Location>

Alternatively, you could use mod_rewrite, or, if you dedicate a
different IP address to the server for intranet and internet
connections, you could put each in a different <VirtualHost>.
