The contract was originally valued at <strong>\u00a310.7m<\/strong> (public subsidy) and aimed to extend gigabit-capable broadband connectivity to cover 4,400 premises in hard-to-reach areas, including locations such as Matlock, Birchover, Buxton, Ashover and communities in the Hope Valley (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2024\/04\/gov-awards-six-new-uk-project-gigabit-broadband-build-contracts.html\">here<\/a>). But this was sent into limbo after the contracted supplier pulled out just as the build phase was supposed to start.<\/p>\n<div class=\"bq2\"><strong>NOTE:<\/strong>&nbsp;Project Gigabit aims to help extend gigabit broadband (1000Mbps+) ISP networks to \u201c<em>nationwide<\/em>\u201d coverage (c.99% of UK premises) by 2032, focusing mostly on the final 10-20% in hard-to-reach areas. Some 90% of premises can already access such a network (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2026\/02\/milestone-as-gigabit-broadband-coverage-reaches-90-percent-of-uk.html\">here<\/a>) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/ofcom\" target=\"_blank\">Ofcom<\/a> forecast this could reach up to 97% by January 2028 (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2025\/11\/ofcom-predict-97-percent-of-uk-covered-by-gigabit-broadband-in-jan-2028.html\">here<\/a>).<\/div>\n<p>At the time a spokesperson for BDUK told ISPreview that they were \u201c<em>now moving swiftly to put in place alternative plans with other suppliers to connect premises that were due to be covered by this contract<\/em>\u201c. Sadly FullFibre Limited declined to comment, although smaller altnets are known to be under a lot of strain from high interest rates, rising build costs and competition etc.<\/p>\n<p>Fast-forward to today and the good news is that BDUK have now agreed a contract change with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/openreach\" target=\"_blank\">Openreach<\/a> to include these premises within their existing <strong>Call-Off 1<\/strong> contract under their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2024\/08\/openreach-to-win-uk-project-gigabit-broadband-contracts-and-help-312k-premises.html\"><strong>Single Supplier Framework<\/strong><\/a> agreement&nbsp;\u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2025\/08\/gov-boost-value-of-openreachs-uk-project-gigabit-broadband-framework-by-400m.html\">now valued at c.\u00a31.2bn<\/a>, which is focused on <strong>Cross-Regional (Type C)<\/strong> procurements (no other suppliers currently tackle Type C).<\/p>\n<p>Type C typically reflects remote areas where no or no appropriate market interest has previously been expressed before to BDUK, or areas that have been descoped or terminated from a prior procurement. Such areas are often skipped due to being too expensive (difficult) for smaller suppliers to tackle. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/openreach\" target=\"_blank\">Openreach<\/a> have already taken on deployments for other contracts that fell into similar difficulties with different altnets (examples <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2025\/10\/bduk-switch-gigabit-broadband-contract-for-mid-west-shropshire-to-openreach.html\">here<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2026\/02\/openreach-takes-on-project-gigabit-broadband-contract-for-cheshire-uk.html\">here<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing there&#8217;s currently no detail on whether there will be any changes to the original deployment plan or scope for Lot 3.01 as a result of this change. The BDUK statement simply says: &#8220;<em>In April 2026 BDUK agreed a contract change with Openreach to include the Derbyshire Peak District area within the existing Project Gigabit contract (call-off one), which covers parts of Staffordshire<\/em>.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Government\u2019s Building Digital UK (BDUK) agency has today confirmed that the previously stalled Project Gigabit broadband roll-out contract for the Peak District (Lot 3.01), which was originally held by FullFibre Limited until they \u201cmutually agreed to terminate\u201d it in May 2025 (here), has now been picked up by Openreach (BT).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":40141,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[471,463,56,69,38,1997],"class_list":["post-45428","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uk_isp_news","tag-bduk","tag-derbyshire","tag-fttp","tag-bt-openreach","tag-politics","tag-uk-gigabit-programme"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/mastodon.social\/@ispreview\/116380683277782773","error":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.6 -
