Much faster than CF deployment. 

Looking at Roadworks it seems like they've practically stopped here in Sheffield, very annoying.

They only seemed to have done any work in the Vodafone FTTC areas and they've been at it for something like 2 years.

Is it possible that since the rest will be PIA it wont show up as roadworks?  I'd think it would as don't they need to add cabinets to these areas?

CityFibre are a very, very odd fish indeed. Won't be surprised if we see some interesting news about them in the next 6 months.

When Virgin did the installation around here using PIA it only showed up on Roadworks when they needed to clear a blockage -so they did upwards of 50 streets without anything showing up as they only needed to open up existing covers in the pavement

Here they had to install new cabinets which I think did show up, but its hard to be sure as Openreach were installing at the time too and I was very actively monitoring that.

Virgin were installing cabinets and short ducts into OR chambers, in anticipation of OR clearing the ducts first during their roll out.
