Rural broadband ISP Gigaclear<\/a> has revealed that they’ve now fully completed their last \u00a31.8m (BDUK) West Berkshire deployment contract with the government funded Superfast Berkshire<\/a> project, which since 2015 has helped to make their 1Gbps Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP<\/a>) network available to 14,000 extra premises.<\/p>\n

Overall, Gigaclear<\/a> has laid more than 700km (435 miles) of optical fibre cable across rural West Berkshire<\/strong> in England to connect more than 14,000 additional homes and businesses to its full fibre network, both commercially and as part of Superfast Berkshire. As a result “superfast broadband<\/em>” (30Mbps+) coverage of the same region has now reached over 98%.<\/p>\n

Admittedly, the lion’s share of this work was actually completed last summer, but there were still a number of hard-to-reach communities left to tackle (a few hundred properties), which took a bit longer to resolve (hence today’s announcement).<\/p>\n

However, it’s also worth remembering that the Phase 2 West Berkshire contract was originally due to complete all the way back in 2017, but it ended up suffering some significant delays due to the problems Gigaclear<\/a> were experiencing at the time (here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Laura Jones, South Central General Manager at Gigaclear, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We\u2019re very pleased to be able to say we\u2019ve completed our build in West Berkshire. Gigaclear\u2019s work with Superfast Berkshire reached the final stages in the Summer of 2020, with only a hundred or so properties in outstanding wayleave areas to go. With those properties now connected, we\u2019re officially finished.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s satisfying to know the job\u2019s done, but really the most significant thing is knowing that all these people can now access ultrafast broadband after years of dealing with painfully slow internet. The pandemic really underlined how important internet access is, especially in historically underserved areas of the UK. We\u2019re looking forward to closing out BDUK Berkshire Lot 2 soon and returning to the area on a commercial basis.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The reference to Lot 2 above is intended to reflect Gigaclear’s Phase 3 contract for East Berkshire<\/strong> (6,111 premises), which was originally due to complete by the end of 2019 and is part-funded by \u00a35.7m from the ISP itself. We haven’t had any updates on that in a long time, but judging by the above announcement they appear to be very close to completion.<\/p>\n

Howard Woollaston, West Berkshire Council, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“I\u2019m delighted that the majority of West Berkshire residents and businesses in rural areas are now receiving superfast broadband as part of this project.<\/p>\n

This high level of connectivity has been a priority for us. 98% coverage is a great achievement and Superfast Berkshire has put our district into the very top tier of ultrafast broadband behind only parts of London and Bournemouth.<\/p>\n

I hope that with Project Gigabit recently launched by DCMS, the remaining 2% will have similar access.<\/p>\n

On a personal level, as a Gigaclear customer, the rollout has transformed my family\u2019s digital life. Without it, with four of us working from home during lockdowns and with multiple screens, we would have been lost.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The focus will now shift to how the Government’s new \u00a35bn Project Gigabit<\/a><\/strong> programme will be able to fill in the remaining 2% of premises, as well as upgrading other areas. Berkshire is expected to be covered by Phase 2 of Project Gigabit, which is due to be announced in the near future.<\/p>\n

Overall Gigaclear’s combined commercial and state aid supported deployments in Berkshire should enable their full fibre network to cover 27,000 premises.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
