Construction is Underway to Bring Xfinity and Comcast Business Services to Residents and Businesses of Radford for the First Time
Comcast today announced the start of construction to connect nearly 10,000 new homes and businesses in Radford, VA to reliable, high-speed, symmetrical Internet. This network expansion will enhance digital infrastructure, promote economic growth, and position residents and local businesses for success in an increasingly digital world. The project brings Internet, mobile, entertainment, and security services from Xfinity and Comcast Business to residents and businesses for the first time.
The first homes and businesses will be connected to Xfinity and Comcast Business products and services in early 2025. Residents can visit Xfinity.com/mytown to enter their address for additional details on construction timing and upcoming service availability. Additionally, they can visit their nearby Xfinity Store located at 2475 North Franklin Place, Christiansburg, VA 24073.
“We welcome Comcast to Radford and applaud them for bringing residents and businesses a new choice for fast, reliable Internet and advanced connectivity solutions,” said David Ridpath, Radford City Manager. “We are excited to have an additional provider that will help our community continue to thrive in today’s digital economy."
Comcast’s expansion to Radford is part of the company’s latest investment in Virginia, including:
“We are proud to deepen our investment in Virginia and bring our state-of-the-art network to thousands more residents and small businesses in Radford,” said Ray Roundtree, Senior Vice President of Comcast’s Beltway Region. “Our network delivers fast, powerful and reliable Internet so people can stay connected to what matters most to them – whether its online education, business meetings, telehealth appointments or staying in touch with friends and family.”
A Network You Can Trust to be Reliable, Fast and Secure
Comcast’s state-of-the-art network is built to enable residents and businesses to thrive in today’s constantly connected world. Radford joins the more than 63 million homes and businesses across the country to have access to a network that is trusted by essential community organizations like hospitals, schools, transportation systems and first responders, and federal agencies like the Department of Defense and FEMA. It delivers gigabit Internet speeds, 99.9 percent reliability and built-in security to help keep customers safe from cyber threats.
Introducing Xfinity for Consumers
Comcast’s residential services are marketed under the Xfinity brand, and consumers in Radford will be able to take advantage of Xfinity’s full suite of products including Internet, video, mobile, voice, and home security. With gigabit Internet speeds, powerful WiFi that reaches every corner of the home, and super-responsive connections with low lag available with Xfinity plans, customers have a great experience using their connected devices to stream their favorite sports and entertainment content, video chat with coworkers and friends, learn from home or simply surf the web.

What It Means for the Radford Community
Comcast’s commitment to communities goes beyond building the network and aims to increase economic mobility for the local community and its residents. That’s why Comcast created Internet Essentials, a broadband adoption program that offers eligible households low-cost, high-speed Internet and affordable computers. Additionally, over the past three years, Comcast has invested more than $39 million in cash and in-kind donations in Virginia nonprofits, including New River Community Action – a nonprofit based in Radford that supports the well-being and self-reliance of individuals, families and communities.
