Everything we do is with connection in mind. More connection means more opportunity and more possibility for cities, counties and states across the country.
In Wisconsin, we invested nearly 1.4 billion in our network infrastructure from 2019-2023 to connect more people to greater possibility. We’re working to expand access to broadband to as many residents as possible.
Here’s the latest on how we’re making it happen.
Public-Private Projects

AT&T has been selected to expand AT&T Fiber to 618 residential and business locations in the Village of Egg Harbor as part of a nearly $3.7 million public-private project.
“We are thrilled to announce this project with AT&T to make fiber connectivity available to every home and business across the village,” said John Heller, President, Village of Egg Harbor. “Investing in fiber networks for our community isn’t just about connectivity – it’s an investment in education, healthcare and economic development. This public-private investment plays a crucial role in shaping a brighter future for our community and the expansion of AT&T Fiber in the Village of Egg Harbor is exciting news.”
This public-private collaboration is an example of AT&T’s work with local governments to expand internet access.
