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.
Four more rural villages in North Yorkshire can now access full fibre services from Quickline Communications.
This represents almost 2,000 premises across Babthorpe and Hemingbrough, near Selby and Killinghall and Ripley, situated close to Harrogate.
Among these communities are more than 120 addresses that form part of phase four of the Superfast North Yorkshire programme, a partnership between North Yorkshire Council, the authority’s technology company NYnet, Openreach and Quickline.
Julian Chalk, Head of Enablement and Engagement at Quickline, said: “We are committed to connecting rural communities across Yorkshire and Lincolnshire that have been left behind.
“Our full fibre broadband brings huge benefits to people who have endured slow and inconsistent broadband for too long.”
