VATI Program Drives Broadband Expansion in Virginia

May 4, 2026 – Virginia has connected more than 221,500 locations to high-speed internet services since July 2021, state officials announced Monday.

Through the Virginia Telecommunications Initiative, or VATI, the state funds public-private partnerships to extend broadband to unserved areas. Recent progress includes more than 5,000 locations connected in the past month alone.

Across the state, local projects supported by VATI funding are expanding access in rural and hard-to-reach areas.
