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.
CityFibre is investing over £15m to upgrade the digital infrastructure of Wokingham town, bringing fibre within reach of almost every home and business in the area.
Construction work has begun this week in Norreys. As work is completed in each neighbourhood, CityFibre will designate the homes ‘ready for service’.
The works are a continuation and further investment of the wider £58m network build which is currently ongoing in Reading and parts of Wokingham.
Regional Partnership Director Stacey King said: “Our builders will soon get to work on a full fibre network, and we think people will be blown away by the difference it will make.
“The network offers more opportunity to everyone in Wokingham and will play a key role in its modernisation that will underpin its progressive digital capabilities for decades to come.”
