However Norfolk is a particularly challenging rural county with lots of sparse communities, which slows the pace of roll-out.<\/p>\n<p>Under the new contract BBfN will finally hit the Government&#8217;s 95% target, albeit not until Spring 2020. Five of Norfolk\u2019s district councils &#8211; Breckland, Broadland, King\u2019s Lynn and West Norfolk, North Norfolk and South Norfolk &#8211; have committed over \u00a33m, which has been match funded by the government&#8217;s <a class=\"shortlink shortlink-66 shortlink-chref\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/bduk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\" title=\"building digital uk\" data-chref=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/guidance\/building-digital-uk\">Broadband Delivery UK<\/a> programme.<\/p>\n<p>On top of that <a class=\"shortlink shortlink-145\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/britishtelecom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"BT\">BT<\/a> has also returned \u00a35.2m of public investment (<strong>gainshare<\/strong> \/ <strong>clawback<\/strong>) from the first contract due strong take-up in related areas, which has been combined with around \u00a310 million of underspend from the same phase. All of this will be re-invested into the new contract in order to help hit the 95% target.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Cliff Jordan, Leader of Norfolk County Council, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In just a few years we\u2019ve made a huge difference to tens of thousands of people living and working in the county. Bringing high-speed broadband to 95 per cent of homes and businesses will be a great achievement but we won\u2019t be satisfied until everyone in Norfolk can access a good broadband service. So we will continue to push for more investment and make the money we already have go as far as possible.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Tim Whitley, BT&#8217;s Regional Director for the East of England, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The new funding from the district councils, when added to the gainshare success dividend of \u00a35.2m based on good take-up of the service already deployed, will enable the Better Broadband for Norfolk programme to reach even more homes and businesses with high-speed broadband. BT&#8217;s network now reaches more than 370,000 homes and businesses across the county when you combine it with our commercial rollout. We\u2019re aware there\u2019s more to do, and the roll-out continues into 2020.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Coverage in Norfolk has certainly come a long way since the end of 2012 when the local reach of &#8220;<em>superfast broadband<\/em>&#8221; struggled to get much beyond the 40% mark and pushing it much further than that would have been very challenging without public investment.<\/p>\n<p>However the new contract is sure to face many challenges as it will have little choice but to focus on some increasingly sparse communities, although the 2020 date does at least look to be a realistic reflection of that problem. Meanwhile those in the final 5% will, at least for now, have to hope that the Government&#8217;s forthcoming 10Mbps <strong>Universal Service Obligation<\/strong> (USO) can offer them something better than subsidised <a class=\"shortlink shortlink-119 shortlink-chref\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/satellite\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\" title=\"satellite\" data-chref=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/broadband_satellite.php\">Satellite<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In keeping with today&#8217;s announcement the BBfN website has been given a new lick of paint and a new mapping tool that will help locals to check the coverage plan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Norfolk County Council and Openreach (BT) have announced that \u00a311 million of &#8220;new funding&#8221;
