The extension costs more per premises passed because the cost of build rises disproportionately as you enter remote rural areas.<\/p>\n<div class=\"bq2\"><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> The goal is to tackle some of those areas in the final 3% of Wales, which still cannot access a \u201c<em>superfast<\/em>\u201d (30Mbps+) service.<\/div>\n<p>At this point it&#8217;s necessary to remind readers that the WG tweaked their contracted agreement with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/openreach\" target=\"_blank\">Openreach<\/a> last summer (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2022\/07\/welsh-government-and-openreach-extend-fttp-broadband-rollout.html\">here<\/a>), which pushed the project\u2019s completion date back to <strong>31st March 2023<\/strong>. The number of premises to be built to under the agreed roll-out is now 37,137, which is slightly lower than the originally anticipated 39,000 total premises.<\/p>\n<p>However, the aforementioned change reflects the fact that commercial fibre builds are reaching further than expected, and some areas also had to be de-scoped from the contract as they were more expensive to tackle than anticipated. But the WG still expects that the &#8220;<em>total number of premises to benefit from the project<\/em>&#8221; may actually end up higher than 39,000 premises when the revised rollout finishes this year.<\/p>\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&nbsp;<strong>35,770 premises<\/strong> (up from 34,122 in Q3 and 32,949 in Q2 2022).
