Hometown Source reports from Comcast a slight update from the news last fall; it looks like Rogers has been added to the cities getting better broadband…

Comcast announced expansions of its broadband network to seven cities including Corcoran and portions of Rogers by the end of 2024, as a result of funding support from the state of Minnesota’s Border-to-Border Broadband program.

“Access to reliable, high-speed broadband is a powerful driver of economic growth and development in our community,” Corcoran Mayor Tom McKee said. “Internet access is at the center of our modern lives and the quality of those lives will be greatly enhanced thanks to the partnership with Comcast, Hennepin County and the Minnesota Office of Broadband. Together we will be bringing broadband to nearly 500 unserved homes and businesses in Corcoran.”

Broadband areas will see five to 10 times faster upload speeds and smoother connections with the Xfinity Network. The 2024 planned expansion is part of the company’s nationwide rollout of multi-gig Internet speeds and adds to Comcast’s ongoing $473 million investment across Minnesota over the last three years.
