Openreach expands latest broadband plans to over 500 locations across the UK

Building upon their continued rollout of Full Fibre across the UK, Openreach has rolled out coverage to an additional 517 locations. As better and faster connections become more widely available across the world, the continued rollout brings more reliable connections to an increasingly growing userbase in the UK. With 14 million homes now covered, this brings Openreach closer to the commitment of reaching 25 million homes and businesses by the end of 2026. 

As part of the overall £15 billion project, the new locations include Tobermory in Scotland; Haworth in West Yorkshire; Saundersfoot in South Wales; Pinxton in Derbyshire, Harlow in Essex; Southampton in Hampshire; and Roborough in Devon. This brings Full Fibre connections to over 400,000 new locations in rural areas.
