Xfinity and Comcast Business Services Begin Rolling Out to Upper Saucon Residents
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.”
