Broadband roll-out update

Underway and on schedule…

Connecting West Oxfordshire, our project to bring superfast broadband to the most rural parts of the district, is underway and on schedule. Gigaclear and their contractors started work in the Tackley and South Leigh areas before Christmas and are making good progress. Work has also now started in the areas around Ducklington and Kencot.

Further information as well as the Post Code Checker and Roll-Out Schedule are published on Gigaclear’s website.

Road works

Gigaclear is using Fibre to the Premise technology which will give the fastest and most future-proof broadband solution. However, this does mean that new fibre cable has to be physically laid.

Gigaclear is working closely with the Oxfordshire County Council Highways team to ensure that disruption is kept to a minimum and all works will be reinstated to the Government’s ‘Specification of the Reinstatement of Openings in Highways‘ (SROH) which is a statutory standard.
