Will rural FTTP providers be compelled to LLU

I've just moved house from an area covered by one FTTP provider that seems to have been set up to provide FTTP where Openreach hadn't / wouldn't to another FTTP provider that's done the same. I can't tell from anything I've read (and I've searched the forums) whether I'll ever be able to switch provider but use the existing cabling (as per ADSL LLU). Are the rural broadband providers compelled to eventually LLU?

(Currently paying £45/month for 300MBit - previously paying the same for 900MBit at my old house so keen to understand whether I'll ever get competition)
 
The altnets who install their own fibre networks are private and don't have to open up to others. But that's not to say they will never consider opening up to wholesale services, or that another company will buy them out, or that Openreach won't still come along and install their fibre.

Keep an eye on BIDB to see if any other networks are planned in your street.
