Openreach the rural first provider
« on: July 29, 2022, 05:05:14 PM »
I present you the Leicestershire plan map.

Loughborough the 2nd most populated area unplanned, most of Leicester city unplanned, just a few suburbs.  A big chunk of the rural areas however are now planned, with the ones further out due earlier. Oadby and Wigston you see on this map according to TBB are in the lowest 10 LA in the entire of UK for FTTP coverage.

Is rural lower hanging fruit?

Rural is a subsidised programme ... with an end date.

Yeah, luckily there is an altnet doing a rollout, the strip of blue in the city area, looks like covering the areas of the 2 universities.

Openreach confirming rural areas in their rollout also means that BDUK won't subsidise alternative network providers in those areas
