Alternative network operator and ISP Brsk has today announced that their 2Gbps Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP) broadband network, which already covers “over” 700,000 UK homes and is in the process of being merged with Netomnia (here), is being expanded to cover a further 10,000 “rural” premises in 5 new locations across West Yorkshire (England).

The operator has already built their network to pass 130,000 premises across West Yorkshire, while the next batch of 10,000 premises due to join that figure will include deployments across the following five villages and towns: Denholme, Haworth, Crossroads, Wilsden, and Cullingworth. But it should be noted that some of these locations already have a degree of FTTP coverage from rivals, such as Openreach and Virgin Media etc.

Residents and businesses in Cullingworth have in fact already become the first to enjoy access to Brsk’s new network as the operator’s work has just completed, while the project is currently underway to connect Haworth, Crossflatts, Denholme and Wilsden, which should be completed by December this year.

Darryl Nieuwenhuizen, Brsk’s Regional Head, said:

“We have spent the last 3 years rolling out our full fibre network to a large proportion of the Bradford District and the take up of services has been fantastic. We have built a great reputation for ourselves throughout the region, with brsk becoming a household name in the area; we already have over 30% take up in our older cohorts. This success has given us the confidence to extend our network to more rural communities across West Yorkshire and ensure they are not left behind.

Brsk was piloted in the village of Cottingley back in 2021 and has seen significant growth across North, West, and South of the Bradford district since inception, with the network now spanning from Keighley to Calderdale, providing 130,000 homes and businesses with access to full fibre broadband across West Yorkshire.”

New customers of the service currently pay from just £19 per month on a 24-month term for symmetric speeds of 150Mbps, then £25 for 500Mbps, £30 for 900Mbps and £55 for their top 2Gbps (2000Mbps) tier. The packages all include free installation, a router and a pledge of no mid-contract price rises. Options also exist for Pay TV, phone, a WiFi mesh product, and static IP addresses.

    Is there already suitable FTTP broadband infrastructure that ought to be shared in W Yorks, rather than building more infrastructure?
    Have the local communities been asked if they want this infrastructure and asked how they want it to be delivered, underground cabling or telegraph poles with overhead cabling?
    Will the communities’ wishes be granted?
