Homes served by this network can now place an order with one of 30 of its consumer ISP partners and receive Gigabit-capable, symmetrical services in as little as 5 working days.

We look forward to collaborating with our partners in the coming months to design compelling new packages and initiatives, and to continue raising awareness of the benefits of Full Fibre.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Julia Lopez, Minister for Media, Data and Digital Infrastructure, saying:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A huge congratulations to everyone at CityFibre for their efforts to reach this impressive milestone in our national mission to level up the UK with much faster broadband.<\/p>\n<p>In government we are driving competition and speeding up rollout. Our \u00a35 billion Project Gigabit will help providers like CityFibre bring the incredible benefits of next-generation connectivity to people in hard-to-reach areas.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Admittedly CityFibre&#8217;s gigabit rollout plan is still significantly smaller than that of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/openreach\" target=\"_blank\">Openreach<\/a>&#8217;s (25 million <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttp\">FTTP<\/a> premises by Dec 2026) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vm\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Virgin Media<\/a> (potentially matching OR by 2028), but equally the extra competition that they&#8217;ve helped to bring into the UK market is one part of the reason why both <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/openreach\" target=\"_blank\">Openreach<\/a> and VMO2 have felt it necessary to respond with bigger builds of their own.<\/p>\n<p>On top of that the operator has also expressed a desire to compete for rural deployment contracts under the UK Government&#8217;s new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2021\/03\/gov-starts-gbp5bn-uk-gigabit-broadband-and-voucher-schemes.html\"><strong>\u00a35bn Project Gigabit<\/strong><\/a> programme, which is an area that they&#8217;ve already trialled (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2020\/09\/cityfibre-quietly-builds-fttp-broadband-into-first-uk-village.html\">here<\/a>). In theory, successful contract wins under Project Gigabit could see their future network coverage expand beyond the current target, and possibly reaching up to <strong>9+ million premises<\/strong>. But only time will tell.<\/p>\n<p>We also have to credit CityFibre for highlighting that the 1 million premises announced today are all reflective of properties in a <strong>Ready For Service<\/strong> (RFS) state, which means that customers should be able to place an order for a live service. By comparison, some providers still cheekily prefer to include passed, but not yet live, premises in their publicly stated coverage figures.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, we note that the operator&#8217;s coverage had previously reached 500,000 premises at the start of this year, which suggests that their pace of build has ramped-up sharply from a monthly rate of 24,000 premises passed to around 42,000 premises passed. CityFibre has said that they expect to continue ramping-up in order to meet their next target.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CityFibre, which is investing \u00a34bn to cover 8 million UK premises with their gigabit-capable Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP) broadband ISP network by around the end of 2025, has today announced the successful completion of their first target by extending the network to cover 1 million homes and businesses before the end of 2021.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":24423,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,1645],"tags":[418,56,38,66,74,96,98],"class_list":["post-29095","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uk_isp_news","category-key_uk_isp_industry_developments","tag-cityfibre","tag-fttp","tag-politics","tag-sky-broadband","tag-talktalk","tag-vodafone","tag-zen-internet"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
