INDIANAPOLIS — The Office of Community and Rural Affairs announced 142 addresses across 27 counties will gain access to high-speed broadband as a result of $628,906 awarded in the 14th round of the Indiana Connectivity Program.
Local provider Surf Internet received $177,600 to extend service to 37 addresses in its coverage area.
The Indiana Connectivity Program aims to connect residents and businesses that lack access to broadband internet service with service providers and assist in the extension of broadband to those locations.
Owners of residential and business locations unserved or underserved (access to actual speeds less than 100 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload) can apply for consideration by entering their information into the Next Level Connections portal to initiate their interest in receiving broadband internet service.
