Connect Hanover broadband initiative

Hanover and partners proceed with plans to provide broadband coverage throughout the County

Last year Hanover County announced its “Connect Hanover” Broadband Initiative to provide high-speed internet services to virtually all unserved or underserved homes and businesses. On March 9, Information Technology Director Kevin Nelson updated the Board of Supervisors on the initiative, which is now only four months away from the start of construction. About 6200 addresses will receive the internet service from All Points Broadband within three years of July 1, which is when grant funds become available to the County. If you are unserved or underserved and have not been counted, the place to register is https://fiber.allpointsbroadband.com. For the full story read here.
