Broadband
Openreach has now fully commissioned the 2nd broadband cabinet in the village. Residents who have not yet upgraded to an FTTC service (which is delivered over their telephone line), should contact their Internet Service Provider to order an FTTC service. Residents in Firs Close are able to order the superior FTTP service (a new fibre line is run to the property) and this type of service is also available to some properties on Firs Rd between Ilynton Ave and Firs Close.
Virgin Media
Contractors will start to install underground ducting for cabling for Virgin Media, from the end of June until mid-August. Works will be mostly in pavements but will include some road crossings and also verge work (i.e. Firs Rd). Underground chambers and equipment cabinets will also be constructed.
