SpeedUp Louisville

SpeedUpLouisville.com collects and shares crowdsourced data about local internet service speeds, rates, and service quality in our community - information that was not previously available. The website helps citizens, businesses and policymakers better understand where Louisville residents can access high-quality Internet service, and where there are gaps in service. Once residents input information about their internet service, an interactive map displays the data and makes it available for free download, with the goals of increasing transparency about Internet service quality in Louisville and continuing the conversation around fiber in our community.
