Almost 3,600 local rural homes and businesses will soon have increased access to high-speed internet.
On Thursday the province announced internet service providers for 14 high-speed internet projects that will receive over $8.4 million in provincial funding.
That includes just over $2.2 million going to Cogeco Connexion which is currently upgrading service in Cosy Cove, Foxboro, Moira, Phillipston, Roslin, Stirling, Thomasburg, Tweed, West Huntingdon Station, Zion Hill.
The projects are part of more than $2.3 billion that will go towards nearly 200 high-speed internet and cellular projects designed to bring reliable high-speed internet access to every community by the end of 2025.
Minister of Infrastructure Kinga Surma also announced an interactive map that will make it easier for people to learn more about provincially-funded high-speed internet projects across Ontario.
Users can search the map by address, community or municipality to find project details, including information on construction status and internet service providers that will be delivering reliable high-speed internet in unserved and underserved communities.
