Help protect a national asset
It's our job to keep the country connected, and it's a responsibility we take very seriously. By avoiding unnecessary accidental damage to our network, you can help us to protect this invaluable national asset.
There are two ways you can do this:
The best way to locate our network is to use our Maps by Email service. If you are carrying out works on public roads and highways, contact our National Notice Handling Centre (NNHC).
Failure to do any of the above could result in a sizeable repair bill which you will be legally obliged to pay to for, with inevitable and costly delays to your project.
Our Maps by Email service is the quickest and easiest way to find out where Openreach equipment is before you start excavation works.
Contact our National Notice Handling Centre (NNHC) to find out if your proposed road works and excavations will damage our network.
Our Dial before you Dig service provides free professional guidance and on-site assistance before you start excavation works.
