NGA in the UK: Broadband Britain isn't doing too badly after all when it comes to moving towards next-generation broadband, according to a report from Ofcom advisory group the Communications Consumer Panel (CCP).
The CCP has gathered information on more than 30 next-gen broadband initiatives being planned or built across the UK - locations shown here - from Dundee's Fibrecity to a European Union-funded regeneration programme aiming to improve broadband infrastructure on the Isles of Scilly.
While many of the schemes identified are currently still in the very early planning stages, the CCP says the number of local next-gen broadband projects underway "will certainly surprise many".
"The various schemes are of very different sizes and at very different stages of development but collectively they represent a range of funding and business models and of technical delivery options that should contribute significantly to the national debate on the timing and form of NGA [next-generation access] rollout in the UK," the report notes.
The CCP says its list is not definitive so post a Reader Comment below if you know of an upcoming next-generation network that is not represented here.
