Comcast Expands Fiber Broadband Services in Butte & Colusa Counties

Comcast announced it will expand its reliable, smart, high-speed, fiber broadband network in both residential and commercial neighborhoods in Northern California’s Butte and Colusa counties. By 2026 these expansion efforts will bring Comcast’s next-generation network to over 260 locations in Colusa County and to 445 locations in Butte County, all of which had previously been unserved.

This broadband network expansion is made possible by an over $8 million Federal Funding Account (FFA) Grant from the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) and private funding by Comcast. Comcast also recently announced it received FFA grants from the CPUC to expand its fiber-rich network in Tulare, Marin, Sutter and Madera counties.

“Comcast’s commitment to digital inclusion means ensuring that everyone, no matter where they live, has the opportunity to succeed in the digital world,” said David Tashjian, Regional Senior Vice President, Comcast California. “By working together in these public-private partnerships, not only are we working collectively to close the digital divide in Butte and Colusa counties, but we also begin to create a brighter future for residents and ensure that all individuals have the tools and resources they need to succeed in a digital age.”
