The Swansea Bay City Deal\u2019s Digital Infrastructure Programme<\/a> has awarded a \u00a39.8m contract to BT<\/a> under their Better Broadband Infill Project, which will see Openreach<\/a> being tasked with rolling out a “full fibre broadband<\/em>” (FTTP<\/a>) ISP network to nearly 1,800 hard-to-reach sites across the Swansea Bay City Region.<\/p>\n

Just to recap. The UK and Welsh Governments gave their approval for a \u00a355m digital infrastructure investment under the \u00a31.3bn<\/strong> Swansea Bay City Region project back in 2021 (here<\/a>), which among other things aimed to expand full fibre and 5G<\/a> mobile connectivity to benefit residents and businesses across Carmarthenshire, Neath Port Talbot, Pembrokeshire and Swansea. Some of this investment also comes from the Local Broadband Fund<\/strong> (LBF) for Wales.<\/p>\n

Several digital infrastructure projects are already taking place under this programme (examples here<\/a> and here<\/a>) and the new contract forms an additional part of that. BT<\/a> will also provide additional funding to increase the overall value of the project to more than \u00a310 million, although the announcement doesn’t appear to include an exact figure for this.<\/p>\n

The deal will bring full fibre broadband access to 1,533 premises and an additional 256 sites across the four counties in the Swansea Bay City Region: Pembrokeshire, Swansea, Neath Port Talbot and Carmarthenshire. The project specifically targets premises that currently have broadband speeds of less than 30Mbps and who are not in scope for any other government-funded fibre expansion projects or part of commercial build plans.<\/p>\n

Susi Marston, Head of Public Sector Wales at BT, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cConnectivity is at the heart of how people live and work today, but all of that relies on the right infrastructure being in place.<\/p>\n

The Better Broadband Infill Project will improve services for thousands of people across the Swansea Bay City Region, who will benefit from state-of-the-art connectivity even in hard-to-reach areas.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Cllr. Rob Stewart, Leader of Swansea Council, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThis project is a game-changer for our region. By bringing high-speed internet to areas that have been left behind, we are not only improving quality of life but also opening up new opportunities for economic and social development.<\/p>\n

Access to reliable broadband is no longer a luxury; it\u2019s a necessity. This project will ensure that everyone in the Swansea Bay region can participate fully in the digital age.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The new project is set to start this month and will continue its delivery across the region over six phases, with the first 220 premises connected by December 2025 and a completion date being set for 31st March 2027. Last year’s related Prior Information Notice (PIN) may offer a rough indication of the premises that might benefit from this (here<\/a>).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
