MS3’s network build has passed 200,000 premises across the Hull and the Humber region of England. The company is also connecting its 10,000th customer in Hull.
The milestone marks progress towards the altnet’s goal of covering over 500,000 premises.
The altnet has completed builds in Scunthorpe and Immingham and continues work in Mexborough and Grimsby. It is on track to complete most of its Hull build, which has so far passed 113,000 premises, by the end of 2024.
CEO Guy Miller said: “Passing the milestone of 200,000 premises is a testament to our team’s ongoing determination and drive to change the broadband landscape in the region.
“Our take-up levels in Hull are above 20 per cent despite us only starting the build two years ago.”
