LEXINGTON, Ky.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kinetic recently announced a $2 million strategic fiber-to-the-home expansion project in Shepherdsville, aimed at transforming the digital landscape for almost 3,800 households across the Pitts Point, Sampson, Hillbrook and Meadowbrook neighborhoods, among many others.

By the end of construction, residents in Shepherdsville (Bullitt County) will have access to 52 miles of fiber optic internet. Customers can expect unparalleled internet speeds and reliability, ensuring that Shepherdsville will experience fiber-fast internet to meet increasing digital demands.

Fiber technology is the backbone of modern internet infrastructure, offering speeds up to 70% the speed of light. This makes it possible for households to enjoy seamless streaming, online learning, telecommuting, and more. Fiber's low latency and symmetrical speeds ensure that users can upload and download data with ease, providing an optimal experience for activities such as online gaming and video conferencing.

"The development of Kinetic fiber in Bullitt County marks a significant advancement in our community's infrastructure, ensuring that our residents and businesses have access to reliable, high-speed internet,” said Bullitt County Judge Jerry Summers. “This upgrade not only enhances our connectivity but also empowers economic growth and innovation throughout Bullitt County."
