We have announced 36 new locations where we will be building FTTP over the next 12 months
This week (31 July 2019), we announced 36 new locations where we will be building Fibre to the Premises (FTTP) over the next 12 months, as part of our Fibre First programme.
In the coming months work will begin in towns and cities across the country, including Newcastle, Doncaster, Chelmsford and St Albans as well as four new locations in Scotland - Kilmarnock in East Ayrshire and Bathgate, Broxburn and Whitburn in West Lothian.
The 36 new locations are as follows:
Antrim Barry Bathgate Ballyclare Ballymoney Ballynahinch Banbridge Broxburn Broadstairs Bromsgrove Burgh Heath Chelmsford |
Carrickfergus Cookstown Craigavon Doncaster Downpatrick Dungannon Epsom Ewell Gtr Belfast (Carryduff & Castlereagh) Kilmarnock Limavady Magherafelt
|
Newcastle Omagh Ramsgate Saintfield Strabane St Albans Solihull Slough Sheffield Torquay Whitburn Worthing |
Overall, 74 locations across the UK have now been included in our Fibre First programme.
We recently raised our target for full fibre FTTP connections from three to four million premises by March 2021, with an ambition to reach 15 million homes and businesses by the mid-2020s if the right investment conditions are in place.
We are currently making FTTP available to more than 20,000 new homes and businesses every week across the UK.
Further information on our plans for towns, cities and boroughs, on a 12 month forward looking basis can be found here.
