Vermont Awards NFWX $20 Million for Fiber Internet Construction

The Vermont Community Broadband Board awarded a $20.2 million construction grant to Northwest Fiberworx. With funding from the American Rescue Plan, the grant will spur construction on a fiber internet network that will serve 22 Vermont towns, VCBB said Tuesday. Once construction begins, nine of the state’s 10 communications union districts will be under construction or operational, it said (see 2405070054).
