The operator usually aims to reach 85%+ of premises in each town or city they target.<\/div>\n<p>Starting with <strong>Cheltenham<\/strong>, the operator has revealed that they will invest <strong>\u00a330m<\/strong> into the town&#8217;s deployment and construction is due to begin in <strong>April 2021<\/strong> (completion is planned for the end of 2023). We know from a prior announcement that civil engineering firm <strong>Kier<\/strong> is expected to support this work (they&#8217;re also working with CF in Gloucester, Bath, Weston-Super-Mare and Worcester).<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Neil Madle, CF City Manager for Cheltenham, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The next chapter in Cheltenham\u2019s story starts here. Our builders will soon get to work on a town-wide Full Fibre network \u2013 and we think people will be blown away by the difference it will make, both now and for generations to come. We cannot wait for residents and businesses to see what is possible with digital connectivity that propels you forward rather than holds you back.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Separately, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/cityfibre\" target=\"_blank\">CityFibre<\/a> has also announced that work to roll out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttp\">FTTP<\/a> across the Scottish city of <strong>Glasgow<\/strong> is finally getting started, although they haven&#8217;t said how much funding has been committed (this is odd as they almost always give such a figure), but it is expected to be &#8220;<span class=\"editor-container\"><em>one of Europe\u2019s largest city-wide Full Fibre rollouts<\/em>.<\/span>&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"editor-container\">The rollout, which has already begun in several locations south of the river Clyde, is being supported by <\/span><span class=\"editor-container\">Blantyre-based construction partner <strong>PMK Ltd<\/strong>. The street works firm has been chosen to lay the 1300km Full Fibre network in the south of the city and will use a range of modern network construction methods.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/cityfibre\" target=\"_blank\">CityFibre<\/a> will be working across several locations in the city at one time, including the west where they&#8217;re deploying from Cardonald to Govan, and in the south east of the city centre, where work is starting in the Eglinton Toll and Gorbals areas before moving to Oatlands and Langside and continuing to Rutherglen and Cambuslang in South Lanarkshire. East Renfrewshire is also part of the longer-term build plan.<\/p>\n<p>Build is scheduled to begin in the north of the city later this year and the full city-wide deployment is expected to be substantially completed by 2025. A separate build programme to bring Full Fibre to sites across Renfrewshire has also been underway since summer last year.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>David Cannon, CityFibre\u2019s City Manager for Glasgow, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Glasgow has always been a city of ambition and the scale of our build matches that. This is a huge project and one that signals the start of an exciting new chapter for the city. The network, once built, will serve its connectivity needs for decades to come and will power future economic growth which will be particularly important in the recovery from the pandemic. We\u2019re thrilled to get started in the city and cannot wait to connect the first homes and businesses to Full Fibre.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>We should point out that the operator already has a <strong>Dark Fibre<\/strong> network present in both Glasgow and Cheltenham, which is usually used to serve local businesses and \/ or public sector sites. But in both cases this will also help to form the foundation for their new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttp\">FTTP<\/a> deployments.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of gigabit-capable competition, CF&#8217;s main rival in Cheltenham will be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vm\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Virgin Media<\/a>, although they don&#8217;t appear to extend much into the south. Meanwhile, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/gigaclear\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Gigaclear<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/openreach\" target=\"_blank\">Openreach<\/a>, Glide and OFNL all have some sporadic FTTP coverage in the town. Exascale has also previously announced their intention to deploy into some areas just outside the town, even though <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/gigaclear\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Gigaclear<\/a> already seems to have done most of that.<\/p>\n<p>As for Glasgow, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vm\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Virgin Media<\/a> already has significant coverage across most of the city, while <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/openreach\" target=\"_blank\">Openreach<\/a>&#8217;s FTTP deployment has also been making strong progress. A few smaller deployments also exist via Fibre Nest (new build homes from Persimmon) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/hyperopticfibre\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Hyperoptic<\/a> (mostly MDUs).<\/p>\n<p><strong>UPDATE 2:09pm<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>CityFibre has just put out a third announcement, which updates on their rollout plan for the seaside town of <strong>Blackpool<\/strong> in Lancashire. The operator plans to invest <strong>\u00a360m<\/strong> into this deployment, which will be delivered via civil engineering contractor <strong>Telent<\/strong> (they&#8217;re also working with CF in Chester and Preston). Work is expected to commence in April 2021, before being completed by 2025.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of gigabit-capable rivals, the town is already extremely well covered by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vm\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Virgin Media<\/a>\u2019s network and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/openreach\" target=\"_blank\">Openreach<\/a> have a small bit of FTTP in other parts of the town too.
