The reason why the extension costs more, yet doesn&#8217;t go as far, is because the cost of deployment rises disproportionately as you enter those increasingly remote communities.<\/p>\n<div class=\"bq2\"><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> The contract is deploying <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttp\">FTTP<\/a> to tackle some of those areas in the final 4-5% of Wales that still cannot access a &#8220;<em>superfast broadband<\/em>&#8221; (30Mbps+) connection.<\/div>\n<p>According to the latest update from the WG, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/openreach\" target=\"_blank\">Openreach<\/a> has so far built their full fibre network to a total of 19,919 premises (up from 15,649 in Dec 2020, 14,698 in Sept 2020 and 9,895 in June 2020) under the contract &#8211; of these 4,710 are in the Lot 1 area (North West Wales), 6,863 in Lot 2 (East Wales) and 8,346 in Lot 3 (South West Wales). All of these completed premises are subject to further assurance by the WG and, so far, 17,102 have been checked through that ongoing process.<\/p>\n<p>On the surface, it may seem as if the first target of 26,000 premises has been missed, but that aim was actually reduced to 20,000 premises due to the impact of wider commercial builds, as well as the re-phasing of work to make the rollout more efficient with the \u00a330m extension and the switch of some area plans from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttc\">FTTC<\/a> to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttp\">FTTP<\/a> technology (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.senedd.tv\/Meeting\/Archive\/7d12143b-1a60-4db4-8890-a9624d071724?autostart=True#\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>). Not to mention that COVID-19 hasn&#8217;t always helped.<\/p>\n<p>Admittedly, tens of thousands of premises are still expected to remain unserved once this contract ends, but that figure may shrink at the next review (commercial builds, such as from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/openreach\" target=\"_blank\">Openreach<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/spectruminternet\" target=\"_blank\">Ogi<\/a>, are going much deeper now). The rest will probably be tackled by the WG&#8217;s voucher schemes and community fund, but others may have to wait for the UK&#8217;s <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2021\/03\/gov-starts-gbp5bn-uk-gigabit-broadband-and-voucher-schemes.html\">\u00a35bn Project Gigabit<\/a><\/strong> scheme &#8211; the first contracts won&#8217;t be signed for that until H1 2022.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><strong>Completed Premises &#8211; Q1 2021 Breakdown by Local Authority<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"ngg-singlepic ngg-none\" style=\"padding: 0px; width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/wp-content\/gallery\/2021-uk-internet-statistics\/wales_fttp_rollout_Q1_2021.png\" alt=\"Wales -
