Cityfibre<\/a> UK has today revealed the first solid details of their plan to deploy a new “gigabit-capable<\/em>” Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTH<\/a>) based broadband ISP network across the towns of Slough (Berkshire) and Swindon (Wiltshire), which will involve a commercial investment of \u00a324m and \u00a340m respectively.<\/p>\n

As usual this project forms part of the operator\u2019s wider \u00a34bn investment plan (here<\/a>), which currently aims to cover around 1 million premises by the end of 2021 and then 8 million across 100+ cities and towns (c.30% of the UK) – the latter target is expected to be “substantially completed<\/em>” by the end of 2025. All of this is usually supported by their residential ISP partners, such as Vodafone<\/a> and TalkTalk<\/a>.<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> Cityfibre<\/a> tends to target “nearly every home<\/em>” (85%+) of the areas they enter.<\/div>\n

The operator already has a Dark Fibre<\/strong> network in both towns, which is currently being used for bespoke business connectivity (leased lines, Ethernet etc.). No doubt this will provide a useful base for starting the construction of their new FTTP<\/a> network to local homes and smaller businesses in both locations.<\/p>\n

Detailed engineering surveys have already begun in both towns and the first building work is due to commence in October 2020<\/strong> (work should finish in 2023). Cityfibre<\/a> has appointed Stacey King as their City Manager for Slough, while Neil Madle will take up the same role for Swindon. In both locations the operator has once again chosen VolkerSmart Technologies<\/strong> to conduct their civil engineering work.<\/p>\n

David Renard, Leader of Swindon Borough Council, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Every modern, vibrant economy needs access to fast broadband and we have made it a priority to ensure residents and businesses in Swindon are able to benefit from the latest technology.<\/p>\n

We welcome CityFibre\u2019s investment in our town as it furthers our aim of providing a future-proofed, Full Fibre digital infrastructure and a greater choice for the people of Swindon.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Cllr James Swindlehurst, Leader of Slough Borough Council, added:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We welcome this private investment by CityFibre into Slough to deliver a modern, fit-for-purpose digital infrastructure that will futureproof residents and businesses.<\/p>\n

Slough Borough Council continues to work closely with the private sector to facilitate economic growth in the digital age and CityFibre\u2019s Full Fibre network will be vital in ensuring Slough has a resilient and dynamic economy for years to come.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In terms of local rivals for gigabit-class home broadband connectivity, most premises in both locations already have access to Virgin Media<\/a>’s cable (DOCSIS<\/a>) network. On top of that Openreach<\/a> (BT<\/a>) have also deployed some FTTP<\/a>, as well as a fair amount of their inferior, but still ultrafast, hybrid fibre G.fast<\/a> technology.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile Glide and OFLN also have some FTTP<\/a> deployments in Swindon, while over in Slough we note that some locations have got a similar service from Hyperoptic<\/a>. Suffice to say that these are reasonably competitive markets, albeit ones with enough opportunity for an additional entrant to still upset things.<\/p>\n

Assuming Vodafone<\/a>’s related Gigafast Broadband<\/a><\/strong> packages do go live in these areas then local homes can expect to pay from just \u00a328 per month for an unlimited 100Mbps (symmetric speed) service on a 24 month contract term, including free installation and a good wireless router, which rises to \u00a355 for 900Mbps.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
