Company’s multi-million-dollar investment will provide high-speed internet to more communities across Trumbull County

 

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — March 27, 2024 — Brightspeed, the nation’s fourth largest fiber broadband builder focused on empowering more homes with ultrafast, reliable internet, is expanding access to its new state-of-the-art fiber network to more communities in Warren, OH and across parts of Trumbull County. When construction is finished, more than 33,000 will have access to the most future-proof network available. Brightspeed Fiber Internet is already available for more than 17,000 potential Trumbull County customers.

 

What to Expect During Construction

 

Right now, crews are hard at work to connect another 2,600 local homes and businesses in communities like Warren, Howland Center, Champion Heights and Warren’s Oak Knoll neighborhood.

 

Neighbors have likely seen Brightspeed trucks and team members in their neighborhoods working to bring families and businesses online. The highest priority is working quickly and efficiently within local communities, keeping safety at the forefront.

Brightspeed Fiber is More Than Just Internet

 

Put simply, high-speed internet equals opportunity for households and businesses alike, and access to fast, reliable and affordable internet and Wi-Fi will help close the rural-urban digital divide.
