Dane County Circuit Judge Peter Anderson has thrown out a lawsuit challenging a University of Wisconsin System effort to expand broadband capabilities in rural areas.
The system and others won a federal grant for the Building Community Capacity Through Broadband project. The goal is to fund fiber optic cables to provide broadband access for schools, hospitals and emergency services in Eau Claire, Chippewa, Douglas, Dunn, Grant, Marathon and Menominee counties.
