@re0 G.Fast cabinet re-shelling will not shown on roadwork.org never is.
I'm sorry but I think you've got it wrong. Adding a G.fast pod won't show on roadworks.org, but a complete cabinet re-shell should since it requires a new plinth and ducting work. How do I know? A nearby cabinet was recently re-shelled (as it was the old cast iron version) and it was visible on roadworks.org stating "Reshell existing Cab with associated new plinth". There was probably also something about ducting there too but I didn't make note of it. This cabinet now has a G.fast pod fitted to it.
Hate to be a wet blanket, but as mentioned above, most of the PCP's around here were reshelled over a year ago. But no sign of (or hope for) G.fast.
Perhaps I can hope for better here. As I mentioned above, a recently re-shelled cabinet has been fitted with a G.fast pod. I do not know exactly when it was fitted, but it must have been within a few days of re-shelling.
Anyway, unfortunately the cabinet in question is not my cabinet. Mine was due to be re-shelled but it seems the planning dates have been missed (though I am aware it was subject to change). Hopefully it'll get re-shelled soon and have a nice pod on it. I am a little bit worried about what sort of speeds I'll get if it becomes available since I am on a line nearing 200m and I am pretty sure there is some aluminium in the network, but the DSL checker had promising clean estimates of the full 330/50 (with only some minor deviations for the upstream).
I am aware of 3 cabinets that currently have pods, and I am aware that there are at least 2 more cabinets that should receive them based on information I have from the DSL Checker before G.fast planned references were purged. It is quite interesting to note that this is in an area that had FTTC as part of BDUK but it seems commercially viable for G.fast...?
