ARPA funds and private investment to connect 10,000+ rural homes and businesses
WASHINGTON, Nov. 13, 2024 – Comcast has announced a joint $55 million investment with the state of Indiana to expand high-speed internet to more than 10,000 rural homes and businesses.
This initiative, in partnership with the Indiana Broadband Office and the Indiana Office of Community & Rural Affairs, will connect underserved and unserved communities through the final round of the state's Next Level Connections broadband grant program.
A Comcast spokeswoman said the country’s top broadband ISP in terms of total subscribers was contributing $45 million, with the state picking up the other $10 million.
Officials say the first phase of the city’s network will install over 100,000 feet of new fiber optic cable.
