Netomnia is making a £38.5m investment to address a total of 128,500 premises across its next three rollout locations, Huntingdon, Newport and Sleaford.
The altnet is investing £11.4m into Huntingdon’s digital infrastructure, working with Opals Group to bring fibre to 38,000 homes and businesses.
A further £21.6m has been committed to expand Netomnia’s footprint in Wales, leveraging the expertise of O’Connor Utilities to add 72,000 premises to its roadmap. The altnet is currently building in Wrexham, Bridgend, Barry, Morriston and Neath.
The remaining £5.5m will go towards passing 18,500 premises in Sleaford, with the aid of Light Source. Sleaford marks Netomnia’s fifth town in the East Midlands area alongside Grantham, Mansfield, Boston and Spalding in a combined figure of over £44m.
Zoltan Kovacz, MD at Netomnia added: “By rolling out our fibre network to these areas we are expanding technological possibilities and supporting economic growth through innovation.”
