Openreach has now connected more than half of homes and businesses in Milngavie to its ultrafast broadband network, with the first 3,500 properties able to upgrade.
Openreach is continuing to expand its full fibre network to help homes and businesses in Brighton access more reliable broadband.
More than 50,000 residents in the Brighton and Hove area can now order faster broadband thanks to a multi-million investment by the provider.
Engineers are currently extending the network to reach more properties in the east side of the city, including Kemptown.
The new technology is claimed to be “up to 16 times faster than the average UK broadband connection” and around “five times more reliable” than the old copper-based network it’s replacing – but thousands of residents have yet to upgrade, with just 26 per cent of people adopting the service where it’s available.
Kieran Wines, Openreach Partnership Director, said: “Our investment across Brighton continues at pace.
“Ultrafast broadband can have an impact on people’s lives and it’s great for the economy.”
