Speed test may help Noble County expand broadband

In 2019, local business leaders, elected officials and internet service providers (ISPs) came together to discuss broadband services in Noble County. Since then, thousands more addresses have joined the ranks of high speed internet customers. Thousands more, however, still have no or few options to experience reliable, high-speed broadband connectivity at rural home and business addresses. Noble County Economic Development (EDC) wants residents and businesses to know that progress is being made and encourages them to participate in the Indiana Speed Test, a crowd-sourced measurement of internet speeds created to help bring reliable broadband service to the most unserved and underserved communities across Indiana. The test is made possible by a coalition of organizations, including Indiana Farm Bureau. Participation in the Indiana Speed Test may help Noble County receive future funding for broadband expansion, particularly across more unincorporated areas of the county.

City Of Manchester Designated As Smart Rural Community

London, KY, USA / SAM 103.9 FM WWEL | Today s Pop Hits May 10, 2021 | 11:47 AM Through a collaborative effort with SOAR, Peoples Rural Telephone Cooperative designated the City of Manchester as a “Smart Rural Community” giving the area an opportunity to lead the way in terms of broadband services. Officials say they have been expanding into Manchester for the past five years, seeing a need in the area for better broadband. CEO Keith Gabbard says this brings an endless number of opportunities. This gives organizations like Teleworks USA the opportunity to bring in more remote jobs to the area. Gabbard says it is a service that was needed well before the COVID-19 pandemic. PRTC hopes to expand to several counties in Eastern Kentucky, Clay County being one of the first. Gabbard says the overall goal is to provide their broadband services into as much of Kentucky as they can.
