BACKGROUND: In March of 2023, Empire Access began construction of its expansion into Williamsport, continuing its strategy of building new and modern internet infrastructure in rural and underserved communities in Pennsylvania and New York. Many areas in the Northeast United States lack access to the same quality internet services as metropolitan areas, which has created a connectivity gap. Internet providers such as Empire Access recognize this divide and strive to deliver improved, high-speed services, enabling digital transformation and providing them with new opportunities for economic growth.
