Alternative UK network ISP Jurassic Fibre, which at the end of last year announced that their 1Gbps Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP<\/a>) broadband network would be deploying across the Somerset market town of Bridgwater (here<\/a>), may soon face off against a new deployment from rival operator Virgin Media<\/a> in the same location.<\/p>\n

Until recently the only gigabit-capable network in Bridgwater<\/strong> was from Openreach<\/a>, which has extended their FTTP<\/a> infrastructure into a few small corners of the town, but their overall reach remains quite limited. The operator has also deployed a fair bit of their slower hybrid fibre G.fast<\/a> technology.<\/p>\n

Since then Jurassic Fibre has also just begun to rollout a rival full fibre network across the town, which looks to be a more extensive build than Openreach<\/a> and is being supported by a \u00a3250m<\/strong> commitment from Fern Trading Limited<\/strong>. All of this forms part of the operator’s ambition to cover 350,000 premises<\/strong> across South West England by the end of 2024 (here<\/a> and here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

However, despite the already rapidly growing local competition, sources have informed ISPreview.co.uk that Virgin Media<\/a> – via contractor Avonline<\/strong> – are also getting ready to build a rival FTTP<\/a> network in some of the same areas as Jurassic Fibre. At the time of writing the planning permits for this have not yet been approved (i.e. they don’t show up in public), but they have been raised and will most likely be granted unless withdrawn.<\/p>\n

The move would no doubt place additional competitive pressures on Jurassic Fibre, although clearly Virgin Media<\/a> feels the area is big enough to support three gigabit-capable rivals in the same space. We’d normally expect to see that in a dense city, but the model can become strained in market towns. In any case it looks as if local residents in some areas could soon be enjoying a choice of three gigabit speed broadband networks.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Virgin Media’s spokesperson would only confirm that they were exploring such a build. “As part of our Project Lightning network expansion programme, we\u2019re currently exploring the possibility of bringing our ultrafast broadband services to the Bridgwater area. No final decision has been made<\/em>,” said the operator.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
