Households and businesses in Port St. Lucie, located along Florida’s eastern coast, have gained access to Wire 3’s fiber-optic internet.
The announcement this week from Wire 3 is the result of a $12 million investment, the internet service provider (ISP) said.
According to Wire 3, the company’s offerings of speeds up to ten gigabits per second are “ten times faster than traditional cable offerings.”
Additionally, Wire 3 now joins communities like Daytona Beach, Ormond Beach, Holly Hill, New Smyrna Beach, and Edgewater in Wire 3’s footprint.
Jai Ramachandran, the CEO of Wire 3, said the Florida-based company remains committed to investing in Florida’s infrastructure.
“Investing in Port St. Lucie reflects our ongoing mission to strengthen connectivity for homes and businesses alike,” Ramachandran said.
As the seat of St. Lucie County, the city has over 200,000 residents, according to U.S. Census records.
Wire 3 says the work in Port St. Lucie also reflects their wider mission to create “10-Gig cities.”
Meanwhile, in August, Wire 3 began a privately funded $100 million undertaking to bring their fiber internet network to areas of Lake County, Florida.
The project targets Eustis, Leesburg, Mount Dora, and Tavares, and is intended to deliver symmetrical speeds of up to 10 gigabits per second to homes and businesses.
