WASHINGTON, April 2, 2026 - Brightspeed has completed 60 percent of its planned fiber buildout in Virginia and expanded service to six communities, the company said Tuesday.

Nearly 122,000 homes and businesses in the state can now access its fiber network, with construction continuing in several counties. The update comes as Brightspeed expands its network nationwide, recently surpassing 3 million locations with fiber across 20 states.

The expansion in Virginia is supported by a mix of private investment and public funding. The state awarded more than $16.6 million in federal Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment funding to extend service to about 3,500 additional locations, along with more than $2.7 million in American Rescue Plan Act funds to connect 976 locations.
