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

BRIDGEPORT, Conn.: 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.
