County Broadband has added five villages comprising 2,000 premises in Cambridgeshire to its full fibre network. Civil engineering contractor NGE is helping to deliver the regional rollout.
Abington Pigotts, Bassingbourn-cum-Kneesworth, Litlington, Longstowe, and Toft will be added to a total of 18 villages addressed by the altnet across the county.
The other villages are: Barrington, Fowlmere, Great Eversden, Harston, Haslingfield, Kingston, Little Eversden, Meldreth, Newton, Orwell, Shepreth, Thriplow, and Whaddon.
James Salmon, Director of Sales and New Territories, said: “Cambridgeshire is a thriving county but needs world-class digital connectivity to boost economic growth and attract investment – and rural and hard-to-reach communities cannot be left behind."
County Broadband aims to reach half a million premises across the East of England by 2027 after securing a combined £146m of private investment from Aviva Investors.
