As America targets efforts towards closing the digital divide and awaits the distribution of federal funds for broadband deployment and adoption, cable providers continue to do what they have always done: build out their networks to reach as many Americans as possible.
Here is a small sampling of broadband projects by cable ISPs underway as they prepare to deliver fast internet speeds in Midwest communities.
Ohio
Charter has recently extended its network to approximately 2,350 homes and businesses in Guernsey County, OH. The new fiber network is just one example of how the ISP is bringing gigabit speeds to previously unserved parts of the state.
Minnesota
Comcast has expanded its network in Minnesota. South Rogers, for example, had 400 homes connected in 2021, while the next phase of the project is set to begin this spring.
Indiana
Charter has expanded its footprint across Indiana, with a particular focus on bringing broadband to previously unserved parts of the state. In Floyd County alone, the ISP connected nearly 450 homes and businesses to gigabit speed networks, extending its next-generation network to more Americans and working towards universal connectivity.
Wisconsin
Communities in Winnebago and Fond Du Lac counties have been connected to Charter’s gigabit broadband. The fiber-optic network extension across these two counties is connecting more than 1,500 homes and businesses.
Michigan
At the end of last year, Charter broke ground for a new network in Wexford County, Michigan. The project is expected to bring gigabit service to over 4,700 homes and businesses that were previously unserved.
Missouri
As of last fall, residents of Pike County now have access to Charter’s gigabit network. This new fiber network connects nearly 470 homes and businesses that were previously unserved.
