Comcast has announced that they are looking to connect with more than 5,500 new homes through an upcoming expansion, which will affect Manitowoc County.
Construction is underway across Manitowoc and St. Croix Counties, and the network expansion project will span nearly 300 miles.
Locally, this expansion will impact the Townships of Cato, Centerville, Liberty, Manitowoc Rapids, Manitowoc, Meeme, and Newton.
Kalyn Hove, the Regional Senior Vice President, Comcast Midwest, explained, “By expanding our network across Manitowoc and St. Croix counties, we will be helping more families and businesses access the high-speed, reliable Internet they need to work, learn, and operate in today’s digital economy. And by combining that with Xfinity Mobile, we will be delivering a more connected experience overall – one that keeps people seamlessly connected at home and on the go.”
The first set of customers is anticipated to become serviceable by the end of 2026, with construction expected to be completed by the end of 2027.
Residents in the Manitowoc area interested in learning more can visit the Xfinity store at 1614 Washington Street in Manitowoc.
