Quickline Build Full Fibre to 10,600 Extra UK Premises Under Project Gigabit Contract
Rural broadband ISP Quickline, which is building a new gigabit-capable full fibre (FTTP) and wireless (FWA) broadband network across rural parts of Yorkshire and Lincolnshire in England (3-Year Rollout Plan), has today announced that they’ve now covered 10,610 premises as part of their publicly subsidised Project Gigabit contract.
The alternative network actually holds several Project Gigabit contracts, but this one specifically relates to their £118.9m (public subsidy) contract for East Riding of Yorkshire and Lincolnshire (Lot 23) under the government’s Project Gigabit programme; this was announced back in July 2024 (here) and aims to reach around 72,000 additional premises over the next few years.
As of November 2025, the provider said they’d delivered 10,610 funded premises under Lot 23. A further 17,000 homes and businesses can now also connect to their network through associated commercial build activity, extending the reach and impact of the network even further.

Communities including Hollym, Tickton, Kilham and Langtoft in East Yorkshire and Anwick, Burgh le Marsh and Grainthorpe in Lincolnshire are just some of the places benefiting from all this.
Lauren Robson, Project Manager at Quickline, said:
“This contract area covers a huge geography, stretching from the very south of Lincolnshire right up to the North Yorkshire border, and we’re building in some of the most remote places. Reaching more than 10,000 funded premises is a fantastic milestone.”
Telecoms Minister, Liz Lloyd, said:
“We’re committed to levelling up digital infrastructure across the country, and this milestone shows real progress in connecting rural communities that have been left behind for too long … I am pleased to see Quickline not just delivering infrastructure, but also supporting community initiatives on digital education and inclusivity.”
Quickline is currently aiming to extend gigabit-capable broadband to a further 360,000 UK premises across thousands of rural communities (roughly 170k via publicly funded projects and almost 200k from commercial builds) and the provider hopes to end 2025 with a total of 200,000 premises passed.
Residential customers reached by their new full fibre network are typically charged from £22 per month on a 24-month term for 100Mbps (50Mbps upload) speeds with free installation, which goes up to £32 for their top 1000Mbps symmetric speed tier (reduced from £49).
