Company delivers on its promise to further develop high-speed fiber network in rural areas of Warren County

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — June 24, 2026 — Faster internet is officially on its way to Mason, Ohio! Brightspeed, the nation’s third-largest fiber broadband builder, is advancing its plan to invest in Mason and neighboring rural communities in Warren County and is breaking ground to build its multi-gig-speed fiber internet network.

Brightspeed’s state-of-the-art network will serve more than 7,000 homes and businesses in the community. It's part of the company’s broader effort to connect roughly 555,000 locations across the state to the nation’s fastest internet (highspeedinternet.com)*.

What Mason Can Expect During Construction

As construction gets underway, residents may notice our trucks, crews and increased activity in their neighborhoods. Crews may dig, bore underground or work on existing utility poles to connect Mason to Brightspeed’s state-of-the-art network. We know construction can be disruptive, but this investment is designed to deliver long-term benefits: faster internet speeds, reliable performance and the bandwidth and capacity needed for online working, learning, streaming and multi-device connectivity.

Our teams will be clearly identifiable, and efforts will be made to keep residents informed as work progresses. Once construction is complete, families and business owners can meet directly with Brightspeed representatives, who will be in the area to spread the word about the availability of Brightspeed Fiber Internet.

Check Availability & Get Connected

For Mason, this investment represents more than fast speed. It’s about creating new opportunities for families who have historically been left behind.

Brightspeed offers various internet speed plans to choose from. Residents and businesses in Ohio can check if Brightspeed Fiber Internet is available in their area by visiting www.brightspeed.com.
