WEBSTER, NY (WROC) — Greenlight Networks announced Thursday that the company will further expand its fiber network in the city of Webster.

Currently, Greenlight’s network is currently available to over 7,000 households in Webster. The company will invest more than $4 million in continued infrastructure development to expand access for local residents.
Greenlight is working with the Webster Town Recreation Center to host its networking equipment in exchange for high-speed fiber broadband service at Webster Town Hall.
“I’m proud to say that Greenlight is working ambitiously toward our goal of increasing fiber Internet connectivity here in the Rochester market, and we’re making significant progress in the city of Webster. This community has been so vocal about their need for more affordable, reliable and high-speed Internet services, and we’re ready to make it happen,” said Mark Murphy, President and CEO of Greenlight.
The company has teamed up with local contractors to help with construction.
