The Digital Scotland<\/a> project has today announced the next 67 locations (80,000 homes and businesses), including 15 new communities in the Highlands and Islands region, that will benefit from the \u00a3410m scheme which aims to make BT<\/a>’s “fibre broadband<\/em>” (FTTC<\/a>\/P) services available to 85% of premises in Scotland by the end of 2015 and rising to 95% by the end of 2017.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The first premises in this latest batch of locations are expected to benefit from a “fibre broadband<\/em>” upgrade during Spring 2015<\/strong> and the list also includes plenty of infill, which occurs when BTOpenreach returns to extend coverage in areas where FTTC<\/a> has already been partly partially deployed.<\/p>\n

Nicola Sturgeon, Deputy First Minister, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“This latest announcement marks another important milestone for the Digital Scotland Superfast Broadband partnership.<\/em><\/p>\n

The scale of the challenge of delivering fibre broadband across our communities in Scotland shouldn\u2019t be underestimated but engineers are working hard and making good progress. One major component \u2013 the huge sub-sea project to lay cables out to the islands \u2013 is now largely complete. It\u2019s also fantastic to see the project extending into places like Joppa in East Ayrshire and Spean Bridge in the Highlands which will benefit greatly from the economic advantages fibre broadband brings.<\/em><\/p>\n

We are still in the early stages of this ambitious partnership project, but it is already delivering for thousands of Scottish homes and businesses who simply wouldn\u2019t have had access to high-speed technology without it.<\/em><\/p>\n

It\u2019s a fundamental part of the Scottish Government<\/a>\u2019s aim to deliver world class connectivity by 2020, enabling people across Scotland to connect any time, any place, anywhere using any device<\/em>.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In total the scheme hopes to help more than 750,000 premises<\/strong> to be put within reach of faster “fibre broadband” connectivity, which will be in addition to the 1.4 million+ that should have already benefitted through BT<\/a>\u2019s separate \u00a32.5bn commercial deployment across the United Kingdom (not to mention Virgin Media<\/a>’s separate cable upgrades).<\/p>\n

As usual the press release talks a lot about “fibre broadband” coverage, although the actual proportion expected to benefit from “superfast” (24Mbps+) speeds remains somewhat unclear.<\/p>\n
