A recent survey from bOnline has shown that many SMEs are unsure about the availability of altnet in their area, with confusion over the UK’s broadband roll-out strategy.
Urmston is the next location in Freedom Fibre’s rollout roadmap, with the altnet set to invest £9m to connect 25,000 premises in the area.
Freedom Fibre engineers are on location to undertake surveying of the town and establish a rollout plan, with the build set to begin by the end of the month.
Chief Delivery Officer, Tony Moore, said: “Whether you’re working from home, running a business, or have a house full of games-obsessed teenagers, fibre broadband will unleash so much potential for households and businesses in the area."
