County Broadband has appointed NGE as its civil engineering partner in Norfolk to lead the altnet’s £146m rollout that will connect 20,000 rural premises across 55 rural communities.
NGE is a civil engineering contractor based in France and operating worldwide. It was appointed to its first UK fibre build in Liverpool in February 2021.
“Building fibre infrastructure in rural areas at this scale is a complex task,” said Lloyd Felton, Founder and CEO of County Broadband.
“Each project is bespoke and requires significant planning and resources, as well as the coordination of local authorities and highways, landowners and other agencies.”
NGE will work in the Breckland, Broadland, South Norfolk and North Norfolk areas, creating new jobs and supporting the growth of local SMEs in the supply chain.
“We are committed to combining field experience with expertise to build these new networks which will have a positive social and economic impact, whilst enabling us to invest in the local economy and discover the local talent pools,” added NGE UK MD Scott Bicknell.
