Two remote rural hamlets in the Eden district of Cumbria (England) – Raisbeck and Sunbiggin – can now access a 1Gbps Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP<\/a>) broadband network after a local farmer helped to bring Openreach<\/a>’s (BT<\/a>) rollout costs down by excavating more than 1.5 miles of trench across 10 fields.<\/p>\n

The improved broadband infrastructure, which covers just 18 premises<\/strong>, was delivered using an unspecified amount of funding from the state aid supported Connecting Cumbria<\/a> programme. Nevertheless, such a remote community would normally have been too expensive to upgrade, primarily due to the need for various wayleaves and a large amount of civil engineering over the mass of fields between both communities.<\/p>\n

However, in recent times we have seen a number of examples<\/a> where Openreach<\/a> have successfully worked with community volunteers to bring the cost of deployment down to a viable level. In this case a local farmer, Julian Thorpe<\/strong>, volunteered his own mole plough<\/strong> (used to dig cables underground) to help excavate a suitable trench for the new cable.<\/p>\n

Prior to this many locals would have struggled to get download speeds of 1Mbps, which is a thousand times less than what is now possible after the latest deployment.<\/p>\n

Roger Frank, Raisbeck Resident, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“It has taken a huge amount of time and effort to get to this point, but it has certainly been worth it and I\u2019m proud of our community for pulling together to make it happen against the odds.<\/p>\n

The challenges and costs to reach our community were so high that at one point it looked like it just wouldn\u2019t happen. But we did our bit by securing private land access and the agreements needed to install apparatus on private land and then made a decision to take on board a chunk of the digging ourselves which ultimately reduced the cost to an affordable level, making the project viable.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Openreach<\/a> are currently investing \u00a312bn<\/a> to cover 20 million UK premises with FTTP<\/a> by around the mid to late 2020s (2025 – 2030). Over 3.5 million have already been reached and 4.5m should be hit by March 2021. Assuming all goes to plan then some 3.2 million premises under this commercial deployment are expected to be in rural locations by 2025\/26.<\/p>\n

If anybody has any information on the costing for the aforementioned deployment in Cumbria then we\u2019d love to know more about the impact of this community involvement. Sadly, we have been unable to uncover any solid figures for the hamlets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
