The Government&#8217;s new <strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2021\/03\/gov-starts-gbp5bn-uk-gigabit-broadband-and-voucher-schemes.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u00a35bn Project Gigabit<\/a><\/strong> programme aims to ensure that at least 85%+ of UK premises can access a gigabit-capable connection by the end of 2025 (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2020\/12\/draft-strategy-for-5bn-uk-gigabit-broadband-rollout-published.html\">here<\/a>). The effort for this will primarily be targeted at the final 20% of premises (i.e. the hardest to reach rural and some sub-urban areas), where commercial investment models tend to fail.<\/p>\n<div class=\"bq2\"><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> Commercial rollouts of gigabit networks could push coverage to c.80% of UK premises by the end of 2025. The current UK figure is over 37% and rising fast.<\/div>\n<p>In England the new programme will be much more centrally managed than the original Superfast Broadband (SFBB) scheme and that explains why the consultation for <strong>County Durham<\/strong> is being run by BDUK, rather than the county council. In any case, the first step is in identifying precisely which areas are not currently expected to benefit from gigabit speeds under existing deployments, or any plans for the next 3 years.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, the <span dir=\"ltr\">Durham County Council only recently ran <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">a similar <strong>Open Market Review<\/strong> (OMR), although this was much more widely focused upon the entire<strong> North East of England<\/strong> region (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.durham.gov.uk\/article\/25284\/Broadband-coverage-Open-Market-Review\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>). <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">The OMR indicated that planned commercial coverage for gigabit-capable broadband would reach approximately 714,281 premises within the next 3 years, and would therefore leave the remaining<strong> 654,093 premises<\/strong> without access to gigabit-capable broadband (&#8216;<em>white areas<\/em>&#8216;).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span dir=\"ltr\">The<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/consultations\/uk-gigabit-programme-durham-public-review\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>new consultation<\/strong><\/a>, which will be open to responses from the public and stakeholders until <strong>18th July 2021<\/strong>, seeks to validate the outcome of the aforementioned OMR to &#8220;<em>ensure that it correctly represents the information provided by suppliers in the course of the OMR and to ensure that the right areas are targeted for government investment<\/em>.&#8221; Interestingly, this one puts the number of &#8220;<em>white<\/em>&#8221; premises at <span id=\"page20R_mcid116\" class=\"markedContent\"><span dir=\"ltr\">540,981<\/span><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>Readers may recall that Durham has already been announced as being among the first areas (<strong>Phase 1a<\/strong>) expected to benefit from Project Gigabit (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2021\/03\/gov-starts-gbp5bn-uk-gigabit-broadband-and-voucher-schemes.html\">here<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2021\/03\/bduk-start-open-market-review-for-project-gigabit-phase-1.html\">here<\/a>). The new Public Review also includes several maps to help visualise areas that may be in need of intervention (public support) under the new project. We&#8217;ve included the one for Durham below, but the main OMR includes maps from across the North East of England (Northumberland etc.).<\/p>\n<div class=\"bq2\"><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> Sorry, the map is quite low resolution, but that&#8217;s all they ever seem to include.<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"ngg-singlepic ngg-none\" style=\"width: 100%; padding: 0px; border-radius: 4px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/wp-content\/gallery\/2021-article-illustrations\/Durham_OMR_Gigabit_Map.jpg\" alt=\"Durham_OMR_Gigabit_Map\"><\/p>\n<p>Assuming all goes to plan then the first contracts under this could be awarded by early 2022, but such things can be complicated, and we wouldn&#8217;t rule out some delays. The Government have also forewarned that they consider the final 0.3% of premises &#8220;<em>could be prohibitively expensive to reach<\/em>&#8221; via even their gigabit programme (i.e. the same sort of area as their 10Mbps USO was supposed to fix and that has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2020\/10\/ofcom-opens-probe-into-bt-compliance-with-broadband-uso.html\"><strong>suffered problems<\/strong><\/a>).
