Since 2017, Albemarle County has committed over $20M in local, state, and federal funding towards public broadband expansion; all in the hopes of achieving universal broadband access. Additionally, private investment brings competition to the broadband market.

As the County prepares to celebrate this monumental achievement, the office will continue to review and evaluate locations to ensure every address is included in a plan for service by 2025. Residents curious about their options will have access to a state website to evaluate their service availability soon. 

Residents with questions about these projects should reach out to us at baao@albemarle.org
