Broadband provider Connexin<\/a>, which is busy deploying a new 10Gbps capable full fibre (FTTP<\/a>) network across parts of Hull, East Lincolnshire and Yorkshire in England, has introduced a new-ish argument into the debate over wood poles by highlighting how using them is “less carbon intensive than digging ducts<\/em>.” But we suspect it won’t sway the refuseniks.<\/p>\n

Poles being used to run overhead cables (telecoms and electricity) are a common sight across the UK. But not everybody is a fan and those who complain often focus on their negative visual appearance, as well as concerns about exposure to damage from major storms, the lack of effective prior consultation or engineers that fail to follow safety rules while building. Such issues can become particularly emotive when poles are deployed into areas that haven’t previously had them before.<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> Poles are often built under Permitted Development<\/strong> (PD) rights, with only minimal prior notice being required.<\/div>\n

Network providers often try to combat such concerns by highlighting the benefits of their new infrastructure (e.g. cheap gigabit broadband), while also pointing to the fact that poles are quick and cost-effective to build. Not to mention that they’re less disruptive (avoiding the noise, access restrictions and damage to pavements of trenching) and can be deployed into areas where there may be no space or access to safely put new underground cables.<\/p>\n

However, one argument we haven’t seen being used much before is that wood poles can also be environmentally friendly, which is something that Connexin<\/a> has now pointed out while deploying new poles in Summergroves Way, off Hessle Road in Hull (East Yorkshire). According to the provider, wooden poles were less carbon-intensive than digging trenches for ducts and could be reused at the end of their 30-year lifespan.<\/p>\n

A Spokesperson for Connexin<\/a> said (Hull Live<\/a>):<\/strong><\/p>\n

“While there is the visual aspect of having poles on our streets, using timber actually locks in carbon for the 30-year lifespan of the pole, at the end of which it is still available for other uses. It also means fewer road closures, diversions and damage to road surfaces, walls and gardens.<\/p>\n

Laying cables underground currently uses more machinery and is more carbon-intensive and disruptive to the environment in the short-term.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The points being made are certainly fair, although at this stage such remarks seem unlikely to sway those who have – in recent months – become increasingly hostile to pole-based deployments. The use of poles could potentially be reduced if infrastructure sharing became more attractive in the Hull area (like it is elsewhere, via Openreach<\/a>’s regulated PIA product).<\/p>\n

However, to do infrastructure sharing properly would require Ofcom<\/a> to force stricter measures on incumbent KCOM<\/a>, which could take a long time to work through. The alternative of a voluntary agreement between commercial rivals, while technically possible, is unlikely to be as effective (too many vested interests at play, just like with Openreach<\/a> before Ofcom<\/a> pushed for more changes).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
