About

Cornwall Council awarded a contract to British Telecommunications PLC for the provision of Next Generation Access (NGA) broadband infrastructure to deliver superfast (30+Mbps) and ultrafast (100+Mbps) broadband services to premises in Cornwall.

The project, previously referred to as 'Superfast 2', represents an investment of up to £14.6m, including funding from the European Development Fund, Broadband Delivery UK's SW Ultrafast Fund, and the Council's own funding.

The intervention area includes 39,036 NGA white premises, of which 16,610 are in scope of this procurement, with a priority on premises currently receiving relatively slow broadband speeds.

The contract value is £19,649,452.
