The Bay Area city is making high-speed Internet more accessible with projects focused on affordability and service delivery and aimed at closing the digital divide. A California Public Utilities Commission grant is among the funding sources.
With funding from the State, City, and private donors, a series of four projects in partnership with the City of Oakland, Oakland Housing Authority, and Oakland Unified School District will enhance connectivity for generations to come.
Later this afternoon Oakland leaders will highlight a recent investment to bridge the digital divide in underserved neighborhoods. The city is receiving a combined 38 million split between recent state and federal grants. The money will go to boost broadband infrastructure in East Oakland and West Oakland and in the Fruitvale District. It will boost internet access for various entities including thousands of disconnected households.
