Summary
Nearly 40,000 Kansas homes and businesses can now get Brightspeed Fiber Internet as the company's statewide network expansion approaches 70% completion.
Another 20,000 locations are planned as Brightspeed pushes to extend fiber-to-the-home service for remote work, telehealth, online learning and small-business use.
Fifteen Kansas communities — including Junction City, Garnett and Hillsboro — are already fully built out, while company teams are going door to door to confirm availability and explain plans.
$474,114 in Kansas BAG 4.0 funding will help add fiber access to about 540 locations, supplementing Brightspeed's private investment in underserved and unserved areas.
The Kansas project is part of Brightspeed's broader fiber push across 20 states, where its network platform can serve more than 7.3 million homes and businesses.
