Quickline Put Full Fibre Live in 4 More Lincolnshire and Yorkshire Villages

Hull-based UK broadband ISP Quickline, which is deploying a gigabit-capable Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP) network across North and East England, has today announced that their network has gone live across two more villages in Lincolnshire and a further two in North Yorkshire.

The latest update means that more than 3,000 properties across the villages of Osgodby and Barlby in North Yorkshire, and Northorpe and Knaith Park in Lincolnshire, are now live. Among the premises in the North Yorkshire build are some of those that have been delivered under phase 4 of the £12m Superfast North Yorkshire (SFNY) contract (details).

Residential customers reached by their new full fibre network are typically charged from £29 per month on a 24-month term for 100Mbps (50Mbps upload) speeds with free installation, and that goes up to £49 for their top 900Mbps (450Mbps upload) tier. The first 3 months of service are also free.

The operator, supported by funding of around £500m from Northleaf Capital Partners, has previously stated that they hold an aspiration to cover 500,000 premises in rural and semi-rural areas across North East England with “ultrafast broadband” via both FTTP and their 5G based fixed wireless technology “by 2025” (here). Some 300,000 of that figure are already being reached by their wireless network.
