The latest independent model has estimated that the H2 coverage of fixed “superfast broadband<\/em>” (24Mbps+) ISP networks across the United Kingdom has risen to 96.45% (up from 96.1% in H1), while “full fibre<\/em>” (FTTP<\/a>) now reaches 11.01% of premises (up from 8.13%) and 59.30% can get 100Mbps+ (up from 57.5%).<\/p>\n

Firstly, it’s important to remember that the first c.76% of “superfast<\/em>” network coverage was largely achieved by purely commercial roll-outs from Openreach<\/a> (BT<\/a>) and Virgin Media<\/a> (plus some alternative network ISPs), while much of the final 25-30% has benefited from \u00a31.7bn<\/strong> of public funding via the Building Digital UK<\/a> programme and other schemes (often matched by contributions from private operators).<\/p>\n

The state aid fuelled BDUK project has previously suggested that a future combination of public funding reinvestment (i.e. clawback \/ gainshare from high take-up and efficiency savings in earlier BDUK deployments) and new contracts could push UK coverage of superfast speeds to “at least<\/em>” 98% (here<\/a>), with 97% being possible by March 2020. As usual you have to order one of these services in order to benefit (not an automatic upgrade).<\/p>\n

The expectation is that this will leave up to around 2% of premises to suffer slower sub-24Mbps connections and those are expected to be catered for via the Government’s 10Mbps Universal Service Obligation<\/strong> (USO), which is currently due to be introduced from 20th March 2020 (details<\/a>). Most people taking the USO will get speeds well above 10Mbps (the headline figure is a minimum).<\/p>\n

\"bduk<\/div>\n

Separately the Government has also committed \u00a35bn to support future “gigabit-capable<\/em>” broadband deployments to the final 20% of hardest to reach UK premises (here<\/a>), although this target is more technology neutral and that means it can be delivered by a mix of FTTP<\/a>, Hybrid Fibre Coax (Cable DOCSIS) or Fixed Wireless (e.g. 5G<\/a>) networks.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless a growing number of FTTP\/H providers are making significant roll-out plans (details<\/a>) and as such we expect to see a rapid increase in coverage over the next decade. Below you can see the latest modelling from Thinkbroadband<\/a> to the start of January 2020 (2019 H2) and as usual we’ve stripped out some of the more confusing aspects in order to make it easier to read.<\/p>\n

Naturally the coverage of “superfast<\/em>” networks has slowed as the roll-out moves to tackle more challenging rural areas, while “full fibre<\/em>” is growing at a much more rapid pace due to the current focus on that technology in largely urban areas (we expect a fair bit of overbuild in such locations, hence why the ‘ultrafast’ figure doesn’t rise quite as fast).<\/p>\n

In terms of “gigabit-capable<\/em>” coverage you should probably be looking toward the “ultrafast<\/em>” figure because nearly all networks in that class will soon be able to deliver speeds of 1Gbps (except G.fast<\/a> but gigabit capable networks have already overbuilt a lot of that).<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> The figure in brackets (%) below represents the previous 2019 H1 result (H1 is from July 2019 data and H2 is January 2020).<\/div>\n

NOTE 1:<\/strong> <\/span>Nearly all of the “ultrafast<\/em>” (100Mbps+) coverage is coming from Virgin Media<\/a>\u2019s cable network, although Openreach<\/a>, Hyperoptic<\/a>, Gigaclear<\/a>, Cityfibre<\/a>, TrueSpeed<\/a> and others all have big “full fibre<\/em>” (FTTP\/H) expansion ambitions for related services. The 330Mbps capable G.fast<\/a> roll-out to 2.73 million UK premises will also help (here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

NOTE 2:<\/strong><\/span> Recent BDUK contracts have adopted the EU and Ofcom<\/a>’s higher download speed target of 30Mbps+<\/strong> for “superfast<\/em>” connectivity, which on average tends to trail around 0.2-0.4% points behind the 24Mbps+ figures above (we don’t list this due to the limited difference).<\/p>\n

NOTE 3:<\/strong><\/span> It’s very important to remember that Government \/ political targets like 95% or 98% reflect a national average, which can of course be better or worse for some regions (e.g. a few may achieve universal coverage, while others could be well below that).<\/p>\n

NOTE 4:<\/strong><\/span> The 10Mbps USO figure looks at fixed broadband services but doesn’t factor in the impact of 4G<\/a> or 5G based mobile broadband, if that were included then the gap left to fill would be much smaller (example<\/a>).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Take note that each devolved region has its own policy and targets, which all feed into the central UK target. For example, Wales<\/strong> once aspired to reach nearly “every property<\/em>” with 30Mbps+ broadband (here<\/a>) and Scotland<\/strong> hopes to do something similar by 2021, although nobody is certain when those aims will truly be achieved (here<\/a>) but 2021 now seems to be unrealistic.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere Northern Ireland<\/strong> remains one of the weaker entries and they’re clearly struggling to deliver superfast speeds, although a new \u00a3165m project may help to resolve that but they’ve been slow to sort out the details due to political problems (here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

As stated earlier, this data is an estimate and should be taken with a pinch of salt, not least because it won’t always reflect the real-world. This is particularly true where issues like faulty lines, poor home wiring, slow WiFi<\/a>, local network congestion, full street cabinets and other issues can result in slower speed or worse availability than expected. But it’s still one of the best gauges that we have for checking against official claims.<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> Official figures tend to be around 0.5% to 1% higher than TBB’s data for various reasons (different data modelling methods etc.).<\/div>\n
