Bay Meadow Apartments in Springfield get high-speed internet boost
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (WWLP) – State officials and agencies are celebrating the delivery of high-speed internet to the preservation of the affordable housing’s Bay Meadow apartments in Springfield.
This is the first housing development to get connected through the residential retrofit program, a statewide initiative to upgrade broadband infrastructure in public and affordable housing properties.
The funds will allow a telecommunications company to deliver high-speed, affordable internet to 148 households in Bay Meadow, which Congressman Richard Neal says is a civil right, given the current digital economy.
