Working Together To Build A More Connected Middle TN
Project UNITE, an initiative of United Communications, was created with the goal of providing high-speed internet—fiber or wireless—to every under-connected home or business in Middle Tennessee. With the support of Middle Tennessee Electric and through strategic partnerships with local communities and business and government leaders, Project UNITE will bring Middle Tennessee residents and businesses the internet connectivity they need and deserve.
United Receives Funding from TN Department of Economic and Community Development
$782,976 from TN ECD plus over $800,000 from United will be used to expand fiber internet to portions of Bedford and Marshall Counties. Click HERE for more details.
