Several councillors on the Isle of Wight, which sits just off the South Coast of Hampshire (England), have criticised ISP WightFibre<\/a>‘s \u00a385 million commercial rollout of a new gigabit-capable Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP<\/a>) broadband network, which they claim has caused “chaos<\/em>” and disruption across the island.<\/p>\n

Back in April 2021 ISPreview.co.uk revealed (here<\/a>) that WightFibre<\/a>, which is backed by Infracapital<\/strong> and began their first street works in 2018\/19, had so far covered 26,000 premises, and they expected to reach 41,000 by the end of 2021. The long-term goal is to achieve almost universal coverage of the island (c.70,000+ premises) by the end of 2025.<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> Infracapital also owns or has stakes in Gigaclear<\/a>, Ogi<\/a> (Spectrum Internet), Neos Networks<\/a> and Fibrus<\/a> etc.<\/div>\n

At the time, the operator confirmed that their build was running around six months behind schedule due to complications caused by a shortage of fibre engineers and disruption from the COVID-19<\/strong> pandemic. However, a number of local councillors have now called for the operator to be hauled before one of the council’s scrutiny committee meetings in order to help explain the alleged “chaos<\/em>” being caused by their rollout.<\/p>\n

According to the Island Echo<\/a> and Cllr Michael Lilley<\/strong> (Mayor of Ryde), “whole towns … get completely blocked up<\/em>” by the work (a reference to some perhaps poorly timed road diversions) and there is “no real consultation with Island Roads or the highways team.<\/em>” Lilley then highlighted the “patchwork pavements and horrendous disorganisation<\/em>“, while Cllr Phil Jordan<\/strong> later also made reference to the “chaos<\/em>” being caused by all of this.<\/p>\n

John Irvine, CEO of WightFibre<\/a>, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We do co-ordinate closely with Island Roads. WightFibre<\/a> will be happy to make this clear to the council\u2019s scrutiny committee.<\/p>\n

Further, WightFibre typically reinstates our work to a higher standard of repair than the original condition of the footway or roadway. WightFibre will also be happy to make this clear to the scrutiny committee.<\/p>\n

If we do get approached by the Scrutiny Committee we will respond to them directly.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As it stands the council has not yet heard the Island Roads side of this story, which may or may not paint a different picture. But as we always say, deploying new infrastructure will inevitably create periods of disruption for local residents, which is often true no matter who is doing the noisy civil engineering side of things (over the years we\u2019ve seen similar gripes being levelled against Openreach<\/a>, Virgin Media<\/a>, CityFibre<\/a> and many others).<\/p>\n

Such work will often end up attracting complaints, some of which are difficult to avoid (e.g. blocked driveways, disruption from road diversions and noise), although in other cases the contractors might also be failing to follow good practice. However, in the long run, the ability to access affordable gigabit broadband speeds should make all of this disruption worthwhile and may boost the value of local housing, as well as the economy.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, operators do still have a clear responsibility to finish the work properly and hopefully any future council meeting will be able to confirm that this is taking place, or encourage a correction if it is not. We can probably expect to see a lot more articles, like the one above, as the UK full fibre rollout slowly starts to peak over the next couple of years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
