How about this for consumer choice. Some premises along a street in St James’s (Central London) have just become one of the first UK locations to enjoy a choice of three “full fibre<\/em>” (FTTP<\/a>) ultrafast broadband networks, including via Hyperoptic<\/a>, Openreach<\/a> (BT<\/a>) and G.Network<\/a>. But many more will soon crop up.<\/p>\n

In dense commercially competitive urban areas it’s quite normal for broadband operators to end up overbuilding each other with rival infrastructure, which is something that has occurred in the past between Openreach<\/a> (BT<\/a>) and UK cable operator Virgin Media<\/a> using different infrastructure (hybrid fibre, copper etc.).<\/p>\n

Now the increasingly rapid growth of competition in the new market for gigabit-capable Fibre-to-the-Premises<\/strong> (FTTP<\/a>) infrastructure is threatening to do the same, although until recently we mostly only saw overbuild taking place between two rival full fibre operators. Inevitably this was always going to change, particularly with alternative networks like Cityfibre<\/a> (Vodafone<\/a>, TalkTalk<\/a>), Hyperoptic<\/a>, G.Network<\/a> and others joining the fray. Not to mention Virgin Media<\/a>’s expansion into FTTP<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Research group Point Topic<\/a> is now confirming that a three-way overbuild has just taken place along a street in the St James’s district of Central London (City of Westminster). The group claims that this is the first three-way full fibre street in the UK, but with so many active deployments it’s hard to be certain (e.g. there are a few other areas that may technically already be at or nearing this point).<\/p>\n

“We expect suppliers to focus on areas where they can get the best return and where they can also get a cooperative planning environment, with Westminster Council as one of the leading exponents of facilitating wayleaves and helping their residents and businesses (see their broadband voucher success) get more bandwidth<\/em>,” said Point Topic<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Snap Summary of Related Full Fibre Providers<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Openreach<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Currently covers 2.156 million premises and aiming for 4 million by March 2021, which is followed by an ambition to achieve 15 million by around 2025.<\/p>\n

Hyperoptic<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Currently covers over 400,000 premises and aiming for 2 million premises by the end of 2021, then an aspiration for 5 million by the end of 2024.<\/p>\n

G.Network<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Currently covers around 75,000 premises on more than 200 London streets and expected to reach 120,000 premises at some point in 2020.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Government’s 2018 Future Telecoms Infrastructure Review<\/a> claimed that “at least a third (with the potential to be substantially higher) of UK premises are likely to be able to support three or more competing gigabit-capable networks<\/em>,” although not everybody agrees with that.<\/p>\n

Some altnet ISPs (e.g. Cityfibre<\/a>, Hyperoptic, Gigaclear<\/a> and TalkTalk<\/a>) have previously raised concerns about the risk of major players like Openreach using their weight to overbuild in an anti-competitive way (here<\/a>). Such networks are very expensive to build and it may thus become harder for providers to gain a return on their investment, or even to attract new funding, if lots of networks overbuild.<\/p>\n

On the other hand aggressive competition is to be expected (natural) in dense urban areas, which invariably results in winners and losers. Likewise having access to so many full fibre networks is a potentially huge benefit to consumers who will find themselves with a much wider choice of broadband infrastructure; although this may also cause some consumer confusion over availability.<\/p>\n

On the flip side local residents and business may find themselves in an awkward position with multiple different sets of disruptive and noisy street works occurring one after the other in the same area. Having your driveway blocked for a few days or longer by such work is one thing, but having that occur several times over, in a short-ish space of time, risks generating a lot of anger.<\/p>\n

At present though many networks are trying to avoid one another but it is inevitable that we’ll see more overbuild and a rise in multiple full fibre networks crossing the same areas. Perhaps one day we may even see four FTTP providers in the same spot.<\/p>\n

UPDATE 2:18pm<\/strong><\/p>\n

Just as a small side note, but Openreach’s FTTP build in the area is not a commercial one and has instead been co-funded with the Grosvenor Estates (to provide open wholesale access). <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
