Around 300 homes in the Peak District National Park (central England) could be about to lose access to an 80Mbps capable superfast fixed wireless broadband network because of a planning dispute, which exists between local ISP Derbyshire Broadband<\/a> and the park authority.<\/p>\n

The issue centres on the erection of a fairly inconspicuous 3.5 metre tall antenna<\/strong>, which was installed in the High Peak area during February 2017 as part of a \u00a3100,000<\/strong> community project. A report on the BBC<\/a> states that the antenna was installed on Colin Hanson-Orr’s land (a local farmer), following discussions with the park’s planners and on the grounds that it was within the government’s own planning guidance.<\/p>\n

However, the park authority states that they had only offered “general<\/em>” advice and the project’s original inquiry related to an area that wasn’t inside of the national park. Meanwhile Mr Hanson-Orr, who has been given 28 days to remove the installation, describes the situation as “ludicrous<\/em>” and notes that there have been “no objections<\/em>” from local people to the antenna.<\/p>\n

One small ray of hope has at least been offered by the director of the Peak District National Park Authority, John Scott<\/strong>, who claims that he wants to work with the ISP in order correct the “misunderstanding<\/em>.” Scott proposes to do this by striking a balance between the need for fast broadband and looking after the landscape, although moving the antenna could affect its coverage and potentially make it unviable.<\/p>\n

The authority claims to have written to the ISP in April 2017 but never got a response, although the provider denies ever having received such a letter. Customers who subscribe to the service can pay from \u00a315 per month for a 20Mbps (5Mbps upload) package with a 30GB usage allowance, which goes up to \u00a375 for the top unlimited 80Mbps (10Mbps upload) option. A one-off installation charge of \u00a3149 (12 month contract) or \u00a3199 (30 day contract) is also applied.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
