Fiber optic expansion in Wörth: All information for owners now available!
In Wörth an der Donau, Laber-Naab Infrastructure GmbH (LNI) has sent all information letters about free fiber optic connections to property owners. This was announced on October 21, 2025. It is particularly important that affected citizens who have not received a letter should contact the LNI immediately. The contact options can be reached by telephone at 09492 / 26184-0 or by email at netzleitung@lni.gmbh.
An information event was recently held where citizens had the opportunity to interact directly with LNI planners. Mayor Josef Schütz emphasized the importance of fiber optic expansion for the community. The plan envisages the connection of a total of 1,564 buildings in Wörth, with a quarter of the property owners having already given their consent. This illustrates the interest of citizens in improving the digital infrastructure in the region. According to mittelbayerische.de, local residents are very interested in progress on this important matter.
Importance of fiber optic expansion
Fiber optic expansion is a central element in the modernization of Germany's digital infrastructure. The federal government has recognized that fast internet and the latest mobile communications standards are crucial for a competitive business location. A recently passed change in the law, which came into force on July 30, 2025, gives special importance to the expansion of fiber optic and mobile networks. This regulation, which is limited until December 31, 2030, allows approval processes for the construction of cell phone towers and fiber optic lines to be accelerated.
The need for high-performance networks becomes particularly clear in crisis situations. The COVID-19 pandemic and the flood disaster in 2021 showed how important a functioning digital infrastructure is. The fiber optic expansion has already reached 76.5 percent of households with gigabit connections, while over 35 percent of households are equipped with fiber optic connections. According to bundesregierung.de, more than 93 percent of Germany is already covered with 5G by at least one network operator.
