Google has announced that it is set to expand its Google Fiber internet offering into for more locations in the US. The expansion will bring high-speed fiber optic internet service to Atlanta, Charlotte, Raleigh-Durham, NC, and Nashville. The expansion plans come from two people who claim to be familiar with the plans Google has in the works.

This means that as of now the expansion plans haven’t been announced officially. Google did send official invites out to news organizations in those four cities to attend events that will be held this week. Those events are undoubtedly where the official announcements will come about the expansion.

Events in Atlanta and Nashville are set for Tuesday with Raleigh and Charlotte set for Wednesday, and Durham on Thursday. Google has offered no official comments on the events at this time other than to send out invites. Officials in the cities also haven’t offered comments on the rumor.

Google has said in the past that it was considering building Fiber service in other parts of the country including Salt Lake City, San Antonio, Phoenix, Portland, Ore. and San Jose, Calif. Google hasn’t confirmed plans for launch in any of those cities, but hasen’t ruled them out.
