Openreach’s last mile services are now live in Liverpool, Birmingham and Manchester as part of an ongoing Metro Access Network expansion programme.

Phase one of its London deployment is also complete with four of a planned eight routes now live across the capital. The remaining phase of deployment is on track for delivery over the next year.

With services now live in all four regions, Neos Networks can provide fibre connectivity directly to locally based businesses across the cities.

It has begun identifying early adopter customers in each region. As the business case grows within each region, Neos will explore additional opportunities to extend the reach of these access networks.

Sarah Mills, CRO at Neos Networks, said: “This project will underpin the growth of UK PLC by creating new opportunities for enterprises and driving investment within several new business districts.”

The breakdown of fibre deployed in each city is 3.6km in Liverpool, 7.1km in Birmingham, 13.7km in Manchester, and 37km in London once the whole build is complete.
