CityFibre<\/a> has today announced that the primary build of their \u00a324.5 million project to deploy a new 1Gbps capable Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP<\/a>) broadband ISP network across the city of Inverness in Scotland has completed. Some 90% of local homes and businesses are now covered (28,000 premises).<\/p>\n

The announcement states that the build cost \u00a324.5m and started in 2019, although CityFibre<\/a> previously told us that the construction phase began in June 2020 (we suspect the 2019 reference includes the planning \/ survey phase) and at that time we were told that it would cost \u00a320m (here<\/a>). This is their second city in Scotland, after Stirling<\/strong>, to reach primary build completion.<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> The network is supported by ISPs like Vodafone<\/a>, TalkTalk<\/a> (Future Fibre<\/strong><\/a>), Zen Internet<\/a>, Giganet and more, but they aren\u2019t all live or available in every area yet.<\/div>\n

The project formed part of CityFibre<\/a>\u2019s wider effort to cover up to 8 million UK premises (funded by c.\u00a32.4bn in equity and c.\u00a34.9bn debt) \u2013 across over 285 cities, towns and villages (c.30% of the UK) \u2013 by the end of 2025 (here<\/a>). The operator has so far covered a total of 2.5 million premises (passing 22,000 premises per week.), but only 2.2 million of those are currently considered to be \u2018Ready for Service<\/em>\u2018 by an ISP.<\/p>\n

The good news is that the operator plans to continue their work in the city, such as by connecting properties in multi-dwelling buildings (MDU), on private or unadopted roads, across business parks and in new build homes. We should add that the FTTP<\/a> rollout is being underpinned by their existing Dark Fibre<\/strong> network in the city, which is also helping to connect 150 public sector sites across Inverness, Fort William, Thurso and Wick.<\/p>\n

Overall, the operator has since laid over 400km of dense full fibre infrastructure across the city. But for those with their calculators out, the build cost works out as around \u00a3875 per premises passed, which seems quite high for an urban area. But then, Inverness does sit in a much more rural region.<\/p>\n

Allan McEwan, Area Manager at CityFibre, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Our rollout in Inverness marks an exciting step forward for digital connectivity across the city. With the UK\u2019s finest full fibre network under its streets, residents, businesses and the city as a whole will reap the benefits for generations to come. We want to thank the local community and key partners, including the Highland Council, for their support as we have completed the rollout.<\/p>\n

Inverness is a city filled with opportunity and ambition, which is why it has always been such an important build for us. Full fibre is vital for the UK\u2019s long-term growth, and we look forward to building on our previous success powering the city\u2019s future economic development.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Drew Hendry, MP for Inverness, Nairn, Badenoch and Strathspey, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“The transformation of Inverness into a full fibre city is a hugely welcome step towards ensuring the Highlands thrive today and tomorrow, with a successful Inverness City at its heart. This commercial investment from CityFibre has been instrumental in sparking competition, encouraging wider investment and ensuring broadband users across the region get a better deal when it comes to their connectivity at home.<\/p>\n

This is a major boost for residents, businesses and services alike, and we look forward to harnessing the power of full fibre to drive growth and inclusion across the region.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The city remains a good target for Cityfibre because their only other major gigabit-capable competitor, of any scale, in the city is currently Openreach<\/a> and their FTTP<\/a> deployment is still playing catch-up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
