Comcast Expanding State-of-the-Art Network Connecting Nearly 62,000 Homes and Businesses in Bridgeport, CT

Network Expansion Brings Xfinity and Comcast Business Services to More Fairfield County Residents and Businesses

Comcast is connecting nearly 62,000 homes and businesses in Bridgeport, CT to reliable, high-speed, symmetrical Internet by expanding its network, enhancing digital infrastructure, promoting economic growth, and positioning residents and local businesses for success in an increasingly digital world. The network expansion brings Internet, mobile, entertainment, and security services from Xfinity and Comcast Business to Bridgeport residents and businesses for the first time.

Residents can visit Xfinity.com/mytown and enter their addresses for additional details on construction timing and upcoming service availability. The project is expected to be completed in 2027. Comcast’s expansion to Bridgeport is part of the company’s latest investment in Fairfield County, which also includes recent expansions to:

  • Stratford, where services are available to most of the 23,000 homes and businesses included in the project and construction is on track for completion in 2026.
  • Norwalk, where services are available to a third of the 43,000 homes and businesses included in the project and services are rolling out to additional homes and businesses throughout 2025.
  • Wilton, where services are available to most of the 7,000 homes and businesses included in the project and construction is nearly complete.

“Comcast is proud to further invest in Connecticut with our fiber expansion in Bridgeport,” said Carolyne Hannan, Senior Vice President of Comcast’s New England Region. “By continuing to expand our gigabit-speed network in Fairfield County, Comcast is providing residents and businesses a new option for fast, reliable Internet and mobile services, as well as entertainment, home automation and cybersecurity solutions.”

A Network You Can Trust to be Reliable, Fast and Secure

Comcast’s state-of-the-art network is built to enable residents and businesses to thrive in today’s constantly connected world. Bridgeport joins the 64 million homes and businesses across the country to have access to a network that is trusted by essential community organizations like hospitals, schools, transportation systems and first responders. It delivers gigabit Internet speeds, 99.9 percent reliability and built-in security to help keep customers safe from cyber threats.

Introducing Xfinity for Consumers

Comcast’s residential services are marketed under the Xfinity brand, and consumers in Bridgeport will be able to take advantage of Xfinity’s full suite of products, including Internet, video, mobile, voice and home security. With gigabit Internet speeds, powerful WiFi that reaches every corner of the home, and super-responsive connections with low lag available with its plan, customers have a great experience using their connected devices to stream their favorite sports and entertainment content, video chat with coworkers and friends, learn from home or simply surf the web.

Comcast Business to Power Bridgeport

For local businesses, Comcast Business offers a suite of connectivity, communications, networking, cybersecurity, wireless, and managed solutions to help organizations of all sizes achieve their business goals.

What It Means for the Bridgeport Community

Comcast’s commitment to communities goes beyond building the network and aims to increase economic mobility for the local community and its residents. That’s why Comcast created Internet Essentials, a broadband adoption program that offers eligible households low-cost, high-speed Internet and affordable computers. Additionally, over the past three years, Comcast has invested more than $12 million in cash and in-kind donations into Connecticut nonprofits focused on helping people build digital skills, expanding WiFi-connected Lift Zones and funding connectivity and Internet adoption programs.
