Here’s where Comcast is expanding its network in 2023

Comcast is looking to accelerate its network expansion in 2023, aiming to ramp rollouts from the 840,000 new passings it achieved in 2022 to as many as 1 million in 2023. Comcast has expanded into the following states and regions:

• Texas: Comcast outlined plans for a $100 million network expansion in Texas which will see it cover 80,000 new locations there this year. Work will initially focus on the areas of Kingwood, Pinehurst, Prairie View, Waller, New Caney and Conroe before later shifting to other parts of the Houston area. 
• Pacific Northwest: The operator is looking to build to another 60,000 new locations across Washington and Oregon, as part of a $280 million network expansion and upgrade in the Pacific Northwest.
• Southeast: The operator is looking to expand to additional locations across Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, and Tennessee this year, but a representative declined to provide the number of passings it is targeting in each. Earlier this year, Comcast won grants to connect nearly 3,000 locations in South Carolina, and thousands in Florida.
• Northeast and Mid-Atlantic: Comcast announced plans to extend its network to more than 7,200 locations in Allegheny and Blair Townships as well as Duncansville and Hollidaysburg in Blair County, Pennsylvania. Last month, it unveiled plans to extend its network to more than 2,600 locations in Plainfield, Connecticut. In December 2022, Comcast won a $7.5 million grant from the state of West Virginia to cover more than 2,100 unserved locations there.
• Elsewhere: In Colorado, Comcast is planning to spend $75 million to expand its network to more than 6,300 homes in the towns of Pueblo and Pueblo West. Expansion work will also be happening in the Midwest. A project designed to reach more than 2,300 addresses in Wayzata, Minnesota got underway late last year and is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2023. Comcast will also be pressing ahead with a previously announced project to cover more than 3,400 locations in Spring Hill, Kansas. And finally, Comcast won $13.6 million in grants grant from the state of Indiana last year to reach more than 10,000 unserved locations across 19 counties.
