Duluth hopes to widen access to broadband, with help from feds | Duluth News Tribune | Duluth, Minnesota

May 18, 2009

City of Duluth officials are entering a race to improve the city’s high-speed broadband wireless service with federal stimulus money.

The city has gotten into the starting blocks, but it doesn’t know the length of the race or when it will finish. The city wants to bring wireless service to its community clubs and to areas without service, but it hasn’t formulated the details, cost or knowledge about how other communities compare.
