  • BT has pledged to rapidly step up its roll-out of super-fast broadband in London by installing more fibre-to-the-cabinet (FTTC) and fibre-to-the-home (FTTH).

    Currently, only about three percent of premises in the capital have access to fibre broadband, with the coverage shown in the map above. The telco's new plan is to hook up 87 percent of homes and businesses by the spring of 2011 (see next map).
