Over 1,000 homes and businesses will be access high speed internet in the communities of Christina, Longwood, Mayfair, Middlemiss, Muncey, Thedford, and rural areas around Thorndale.
The Provincial and Federal Governments have announced funding to support more high speed Internet connections in Middlesex and Lambton Counties.
In Middlesex County, the construction of $7.2 million in broadband infrastructure has started in the communities of Christina, Longwood, Mayfair, Middlemiss, Muncey and rural areas around Thorndale. MP for London North Centre Peter Fragiskatos says this will help create more economic and educational opportunities in rural, remote and undeserved areas of Middlesex County.
"Access to fast and reliable Internet service is key to the modern world we live in. As someone who continues to advocate for Southwestern Ontario, today’s announcement is certainly welcomed. This excellent broadband infrastructure will serve the people of Lambton and Middlesex counties very well now and in the years to come, allowing residents and businesses to thrive. The well-being of rural citizens is a priority for this federal government and that will continue."
In Lambton County, construction of $1.7 million in broadband infrastructure has now begun in the communities of Thedford (Former Bosanquet Township), Springvale, Jericho and Jura, that will deliver reliable internet access to more homes and businesses.
Over 1,000 homes and businesses will be able to access reliable broadband internet service with this announcement that will serve the Kettle and Stony Point First Nation.
The contracts were awarded by Southwestern Integrated Fibre Technology (SWIFT) Inc, a not-for-profit corporation initiated by local municipalities to address connectivity in Southwestern Ontario.
