Virgin Media O2’s gigabit broadband rollout continues, with more than 9,000 more homes in Bath having access to services after work completed.
Blackpool North MP Paul Maynard visited CityFibre’s £60m town-wide network which is expected to bring £167m worth of productivity and innovation gains to the area.
Representatives from CityFibre and build partner Network Plus introduced Maynard to digital infrastructure and the typical build process.
Area Manager Steve Thorpe said: “Rolling out the latest full fibre network in Blackpool is a critical step in fulfilling our ambition to bolster UK towns and cities by making their digital foundations future proof.”
In Blackpool, gigabit-capable services are currently available from TalkTalk.
