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.
Lothian Broadband Group has added Gullane, East Linton and Pathhead to its network rollout plan for 2022, representing increased investment within East Lothian and Midlothian.
Gullane will be the next location with work on the 1,600-premise build starting in July with the first customers being connected in September.
The East Linton and Pathhead builds will start shortly after with the entire network builds across all locations being completed in 2022.
CEO Gavin Rodgers (pictured) said: “Our latest full fibre broadband investments will give local businesses and residents access to ultrafast broadband that is as fast as anywhere else in the UK.”
