More funding will probably still be needed to fill any gaps.<\/p>\n<p><strong>UPDATE 12th January 2016<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Apparently the reason for <a href=\"http:\/\/superfastnorthamptonshire.net\/\" target=\"_blank\">Superfast Northamptonshire<\/a>&#8216;s 3 months early remark is because the original contract, signed in March 2013, was for a THP (total homes passed) deployment of 56,065 premises (48,660 would be able to access above 24Mbps). Back then the superfast element of this contract was due to complete by Sept 2015, with the basic broadband (2Mbps for all) element completing by December 2015.<\/p>\n<p>However since then the project has made 2 extensions to the contract (both in 2014) to deliver more, which upped targets to a THP of 60,950 (53,400 covered by 24Mbps+).\u00a0 These contract extensions also extended the implementation plan timescales to March 2016, which is why they&#8217;ve reported it as finishing 3 months ahead of schedule.<\/p>\n<p>We also understand that the new <strong>Superfast Extension Programme<\/strong> (SEP) contract has now been accelerated, so it will complete one year earlier by December 2017.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first contract for the Superfast Northamptonshire project in England, which aimed to make BTOpenreach&#8217;s superfast broadband (FTTC\/P) network available to about 90% of premises by the end of 2015, has officially completed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[474,471,55,56,430,69],"class_list":["post-10823","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uk_isp_news","tag-bt","tag-bduk","tag-fttc","tag-fttp","tag-northamptonshire","tag-bt-openreach"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
