But apparently not everybody is happy with the plan and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thewestmorlandgazette.co.uk\/news\/11657111.print\/\" target=\"_blank\">Westmorland Gazette<\/a> reports that opposition Conservative councillors are particularly concerned about the projects deliverability.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Libby Bateman, Councillor for Kirkby Stephen, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>I\u2019ve been a supporter of the Fibre GarDen project from its inception as it is the ultimate \u2018build and benefit\u2019 community broadband project. However, I have concerns about the deliverability of the project and that issue doesn\u2019t appear to have been considered during the decision to remove the area from the main Connecting Cumbria project<\/em>.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Funnily enough we do recall the issue of deliverability being somewhat of a hot topic during the start of this year, which at one point left many to ponder whether Fibre GarDen would ever be able to proceed (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2014\/03\/garsdale-dent-parish-councils-criticise-fibre-garden-project.html\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>). Never the less those concerns appear to have been resolved and the funding was eventually released. We&#8217;re also unclear how you can both claim to support a project and attempt to torpedo it in public, but that&#8217;s politics.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand the criticism is arguably coming after the horse has already bolted and the onus will now be upon Fibre GarDen and ITS to show they can deliver. However the physical deployment work was already due to have started, but an update posted at the end of last week noted how they&#8217;ve had &#8220;<em>a number of difficulties with last minute wayleaves and network redesign both for the first section build in each Dale<\/em>&#8220;.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Fibre GarDen Update &#8211; 7th Dec 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>The main reason for the delay was notification from our confirmed backhaul supplier that there would be a possible delay of 3-6 months in securing this due to various administrative process that were holding up approval. This has required us to seek alternative sources of backhaul and I am pleased to report that we have three options to choose from. We received these proposals today [Sunday] following site surveys around the Dales this week and are now being digested by all concerned.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>We have a meeting on Wednesday with DEFRA, BDUK and the Connecting Cumbria Project to work through the backhaul proposals and with the view to agreeing on one that will meet the needs of the project and be cost effective. Following this we will be back on track. Not sure what we can do on the ground now before the Seasonal Break but we will know better by the end of next week<\/em>.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The original plan optimistically suggested that the first customers could be live by Christmas, although given the complexity of such deployments this was always likely to be a bit overly optimistic. Similar rural fibre optic roll-outs elsewhere around the United Kingdom have also faced delays in their first year, just ask <a class=\"shortlink shortlink-49 shortlink-chref\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/b4rn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\" title=\"Broadband 4 the Rural North\" data-chref=\"https:\/\/b4rn.org.uk\">B4RN<\/a>, but that doesn&#8217;t mean to say the project itself won&#8217;t be successful, again.. just ask <a class=\"shortlink shortlink-49 shortlink-chref\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/b4rn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\" title=\"Broadband 4 the Rural North\" data-chref=\"https:\/\/b4rn.org.uk\">B4RN<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand there&#8217;s a general election coming and even the smallest sniff of a problem can become part of a full blown political slanging match.
