Lincolnshire's £7m Broadband Grant
Posted: 20th Feb, 2003 By: MarkJ
The European Union has issued Lincolnshire County Council with a £7m grant to subsidise broadband services for 3,000 rural businesses:
The grant, reaped from the European Regional Development Fund, will be used to help firms pay for high-speed services and attract broadband providers, which have so far shown a reluctance to invest in infrastructure to serve many rural areas.
The council, which has itself put a further £7m into the project, also hopes to attract technology companies to the county and to improve internet links for residential users.
It will start taking applications for subsidies from businesses later this year.
