B4RN also has eyes on Low Bentham, Halton, Hornby, Farleton and Claughton, which means they&#8217;ll be pushing into the edges of <strong>Cumbria<\/strong> and <strong>Yorkshire<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"http:\/\/recombu.com\/digital\/news\/rural-fibre-broadband-b4rn-ofcom-code-powers\" target=\"_blank\">Recombu<\/a>, another 40 or so premises are already lined up to go live (total of 640), provided some issues with access can be resolved.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>B4RNs Christine Conder said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>There are around 40 new customers awaiting connection. They are waiting because we await permission from the county council for road crossings<\/em>.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Generally speaking the take-up for B4RN&#8217;s service remains high, fuelled as it is by strong community involvement and investment, with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2013\/02\/b4rn-connect-300-homes-to-1gbps-ftth-broadband-in-lancashire-uk.html\" target=\"_blank\">earlier figures<\/a> stating that it costs approximately <strong>\u00a31,000 per property<\/strong> to deploy the service (\u00a3750k was raised to fund this &#8211; between 2011 and 2012 &#8211; as part of the first share offer) and this is\u00a0balanced against\u00a0an average take-up of over 50%; some areas within its coverage are even said to have hit more than 80%.<\/p>\n<p>Admittedly it&#8217;s taken B4RN a little longer than they perhaps initially expected to reach this point, yet the results appear to be good and as B4RN move to complete their initial deployment phases then the focus will increasingly shift towards future expansion and support. Crucially the project now claims to be earning enough money that they can start to think about investing in new developments.<\/p>\n<p>Apparently two tentative plans for the future involve securing <strong>Code Powers<\/strong> from <a class=\"shortlink shortlink-133 shortlink-chref\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/ofcom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\" title=\"ofcom\" data-chref=\"https:\/\/www.ofcom.org.uk\">Ofcom<\/a> (i.e. quicker approval for street works around the UK) and hiring some <strong>full time staff<\/strong>, instead of using volunteers for the bulk of technical support, maintenance and construction related tasks as they do today.
