Comcast Network Expansion to Connect Nearly
7,000 Homes and Businesses in Upper Saucon Township
Comcast has connected the first 1,000 homes and businesses in
Upper Saucon, Pa., to its reliable, high-speed Internet network as
part of an expansion that will ultimately reach more than 7,000
homes and businesses in the township. The network expansion brings
Internet, mobile, entertainment, and security services from Xfinity
and Comcast Business to these residents and businesses, enhancing
digital infrastructure, promoting economic growth, and positioning
residents and local businesses for success in an increasingly
digital world.
“Comcast’s decision to expand into the Upper Saucon community is
a win for consumer choice,” said Senator Jarrett Coleman (PA-16th).
“It’s critical that our residents and businesses have access to
reliable, state-of-the-art broadband connectivity to fully enjoy
the benefits of today’s digital world. I applaud Comcast for their
commitment to bridging the digital divide by offering Internet
Essentials and supporting community programming and digital
literacy training.”
Residents can visit Xfinity.com/mytown and enter their addresses
to check for current service availability or for additional details
on construction timing. They can also stop by the Xfinity Store in
Quakertown, located at 235 N. West End Blvd., to see if they are
eligible for service today. The project is expected to be completed
in Spring 2025. Comcast’s most recent expansion to Upper Saucon is
part of the company’s latest investment in Lehigh County, which
also includes a completed expansion to Coopersburg. In the last
three years, Comcast has connected an additional 232,000 homes and
businesses in Pennsylvania to Xfinity and Comcast Business
services, with more to come in 2025.
“We are committed to investing in and expanding our network to
ensure that more residents and businesses in Pennsylvania have a
choice in their Internet provider,” said Dan Bonelli, Senior Vice
President of Comcast’s Freedom Region, which serves Southeastern
Pennsylvania. “Our network delivers a world-class experience within
and outside the home, and our dedicated team of local experts are
excited to help connect Upper Saucon residents to what matters
most.”
A Network You Can Trust to be Reliable, Fast and Secure
Comcast’s state-of-the-art network is built to enable residents and
businesses to thrive in today’s constantly connected world. Upper
Saucon joins the more than 63 million homes and businesses across
the country to have access to a network that is trusted by

Internet speeds, 99.9 percent reliability and built-in security to

broadband adoption program that offers eligible households
low-cost, high-speed Internet and affordable computers.
Additionally, over the past three years, Comcast has invested more

nonprofits focused on helping people build digital skills,
