By Kimberly Koerth

tw telecom inc. is adding new fiber to expand its existing market reach in Louisville, Ky., as well as parts of southern Indiana. The expansion extends the company’s network footprint from the city’s central business district into the cities of Jeffersonville, Clarksville and New Albany, Ind.

“Customer demand – both new and existing – is fueling growth in the Louisville metro area, as well as into Southern Indiana,” said Joe Paulin, vice president and general manager, tw telecom Louisville. “Not only will this expansion add additional market reach for our customers in Louisville and surrounding communities, but we are excited to expand our network across the Ohio River into the fast-growing areas of Southern Indiana.”

The Louisville expansion is part of a national effort by the company to expand its metro fiber footprint across the country.

The news follows tw telecom’s announcement last week about expansions in Portland, Ore.; and Salt Lake City.
