The Stansted Mountfitchet Parish Council<\/a> in Essex (England) is demanding that UK broadband ISP Gigaclear<\/a> cough up \u00a325,000 after the operator installed a new street cabinet to support their gigabit-capable Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP<\/a>) network on the corner of Five Acres and Cambridge Road, without consultation.<\/p>\n

According to recent reports, local residents in the area have complained that the new cabinet is an “eyesore<\/em>” that has “ruined an attractive area of mature trees near a bench that people enjoy sitting on<\/em>.” Furthermore, the cabinet is said to have been installed on council (public) land without prior consultation, either of local residents or the parish council itself.<\/p>\n

The Bishop’s Stortford Independent<\/a> adds that the council’s finance committee has now unanimously decided that the operator has “ridden roughshod<\/em>” over them and have hit Gigaclear<\/a> with a compensation demand of \u00a325,000<\/strong> – for the loss of amenity and failure to consult properly. On top of that, they also want the ISP to move the cabinet to a less conspicuous spot behind the bench, where it would be masked by vegetation.<\/p>\n

Gigaclear is said to have offered an apology along with unspecified mitigating measures, although the council has rejected the latter.<\/p>\n

Cllr John O\u2019Brien, Chair of the Finance Committee, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“It\u2019s another example of large corporate organisations feeling they can ride roughshod over parish councils. It\u2019s an eyesore and loss of amenity for the community in a restful spot. Gigaclear has offered an apology along with mitigating measures…they say removing it would be too costly.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

If at this point you’re reading the article, looking at the picture, and wondering what all the fuss is about, then join the club. Over the years we’ve reported on plenty of cases where network operators have deployed street cabinets incorrectly, or without much regard for pedestrians. But placing a broadband cabinet on a regular public grass verge, positioned next to a road junction, is just about as normal as you can get.<\/p>\n

Granted, it is a nice-ish spot (if you like views of a main road) and Gigaclear could have perhaps put it further back, but at the same time we’ve seen thousands of other cabinets positioned in the same way. On top of that, broadband cabinets are usually deployed under Permitted Development<\/strong> (PD) rights, which means that Gigaclear do not need permission before conducting such deployments.<\/p>\n

The reason why it’s done this way is because otherwise local authorities could significantly delay the rollout of new broadband networks and add extra costs, which would also result in fewer premises being covered (often disproportionately impacting rural communities). The rules were relaxed precisely so that operators could deploy in a way that would enable full fibre cables to reach as many premises as possible, as quickly as possible.<\/p>\n

We’ve asked Gigaclear to comment and will report back once one arrives.<\/p>\n

UPDATE 9:10am<\/strong><\/p>\n

We’ve had a comment from Gigaclear, although it doesn’t clarify what mitigations they proposed to the council.<\/p>\n

A Gigaclear spokesman said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We have been in contact with Stansted Mountfitchet Parish Council following the incorrect siting of one of our cabinets in the village. We apologise for this error. We are currently exploring a number of options in order to rectify the matter. Gigaclear is currently rolling out its full fibre broadband network in the village as part of its \u00a3150 million infrastructure investment in rural Essex.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
