CityFibre has now laid 1,672km of full fibre Internet beneath the streets of Glasgow, enough to stretch the length of the River Clyde ten times.
Portsmouth-based broadband provider toob is investing £5m building its own infrastructure in Locks Heath and the surrounding area.
Circa 12,000 homes and businesses will benefit from toob’s network with the service ready for its first connections from July 2024, continuing across Locks Heath, Park Gate, Warsash and the surrounding areas.
This latest development comes hot on the heels of growth across Hampshire, Surrey, Dorset, Sussex and Berkshire.
toob CEO Nick Parbutt stated: “toob has been built on our belief that access to fast, reliable broadband at an affordable price is a necessity in today’s increasingly digital world."
He also noted that toob operates a no in-contract price rise policy which means customers won’t be subject to 'costly mid-year surprises'.
