Transforming South Yorkshire
Superfast South Yorkshire are delivering the broadband infrastructure required to make South Yorkshire a well-connected and attractive place for businesses to develop, bringing new jobs to the region.
During Phase 1 of the Superfast South Yorkshire program, fibre to the cabinet (FTTC) was the main technology used, which delivers download speeds of up to 80 Mbps to businesses and residents.
Phase 2 of our project focused on fibre to the premises technology (FTTP) was the major technology used, delivering superfast and ultrafast speeds up to 1,000Mbps, initially covering key Enterprise Zones and Business Parks, with expansion plans to enable over 9,000 homes and businesses by Spring 2021.
The new fibre-based network installed by Openreach is open to all Internet Service Providers, meaning households and businesses in South Yorkshire can benefit from a competitive market which brings greater choice and affordability.
The next phase of upgrading the region's digital infrastructure has now begun, with Project Gigabit launching across the UK in early 2022, and the South Yorkshire elements of this project commencing in 2024. As part of this programme, rural homes across South Yorkshire will be connected to the fibre network.
