The ongoing commercial rollout of fibre broadband funded by BT and Virgin Media is currently expected to reach around 80% of premises across South Yorkshire. The remaining coverage will be derived from the Superfast South Yorkshire project; a partnership between the South Yorkshire authorities of Barnsley, Doncaster, Rotherham and Sheffield and BT, to specifically address an intervention areas across South Yorkshire that are not commercially viable for providers to service without subsidy. Within this current rollout we hope to reach well over 100,000 premises with a fibre service by the end of 2019.
