CARNEY, MI— An Upper Peninsula company is getting a grant from the state to improve internet access.
Governor Gretchen Whitmer says the state is investing an additional $3.3 million in funding to bring high-speed internet access to more residents, homes and small businesses.
Upper Peninsula Telephone of Carney has been awarded more than $2 million dollars. The company is proposing a fiber to the home network that would connect 357 locations in Menominee County.
The money is distributed under the Connecting Michigan Communities grant program.
