Access to High-Quality Broadband for All of North Yorkshire by 2017

This project aims to provide high-quality broadband to 100% of premises in North Yorkshire by 2017. It addresses the challenge of low broadband speeds in the area and aims to deliver superfast broadband to 50% of premises through commercial providers. The remaining 10% will be addressed through funding and technology options such as extending BT's fiber and wireless solutions.

  2. SFNY Vision Access to high-quality broadband for 100% of North Yorkshire premises by 2017

  3. The Challenge - 2010 Before SFNY, 17% of premises got less than 2Mbps Average speed across North Yorkshire of 4Mbps Superfast broadband, at least 25Mbps, about to be delivered to approximately 50% of North Yorkshire by BT/Virgin commercially

  4. Premises in North Yorkshire and City of York Commercial BT 164057 Virgin 20968 Total Commercial 185025 49% BT Phase 1 Contract >25Mbps 149944 At least 2Mbps _44788 Total Intervention Area 19473251% Total Premises379757

  5. BT Rollout – Phase 1 Key contract terms (Intervention Area) 77% access to min 25Mbps (= Superfast) Completion by October 2014 USC minimum 2Mbps £26.5m (BDUK £17.8m, ERDF £8.7m) Mostly FTTC Some FTTP (3%) Intervention + Commercial = c.90% (now estimated at 86%)

  6. The basics - FTTC Fibre to the Cabinet

  7. The basics - FTTP Fibre to the Premises

  8. BT Rollout – Phase 1 Headlines Completed 695 cabinets 149944 premises >25+Mbps But coverage not uniform, By urban/rural By District By Constituency

  9. North Yorkshire

  10. Phase 1 and Commercial Craven

  11. Lessons learnt to date BT technology works, but has issues laws of physics apply (1.2km) coverage is spotty not spatial quality of pre-existing (voice) networks split communities/business parks

  12. What is left to do? >25Mbps <25Mbps Total Intervention area 149944 44788 194732 Commercial area 177056* 7969* 185025 Totals 32700052757379757 86% 14% * ‘best guess’

  13. How to address the remaining “10%”? 50,000+ premises (unevenly spread) Funding needed Technology options more fibre by BT wireless (extend existing/new) satellite

  14. Phase 2 – extend BT contract £8m (BDUK £3m, ERDF £2m, NYCC £3m) Intervention Area 194732 premises Phase 1 149944 [=77/86%] Phase 2 FTTC 6000 FTTP 4500 160444 FTTrN? 160444[=82/90%] Rollout April 2015 to December 2016

  15. North Yorkshire

  16. Local picture Draughton Currently in Phase 2 plans as FTTC (EO) deployment. Will only know more on certainty once detailed planning completed and moves into delivery phase. Not currently expecting any issues.

  18. Reflections on getting to 100% How much further can BT fibre reach? Technically Relative value for money (£177  £762  £1500?) Delivery Timescale • Will DCMS/BDUK retain 100% NGA objective? • USC 2Mbps commitment  BDUK ‘released’ BT in Framework contracts • State Aid requirement (BDUK seeking renewal) • BDUK £ for NGA (>25Mbps) only • Willingness/ability of local authorities to £ for £ match • Non BT alternatives • State Aid/procurement/funding implications for local authorities

  19. WISPs in North Yorkshire More then a dozen operators Vary from small (ADSL backhaul) to larger commercial (fibre backhaul) schemes Reasonable geographical coverage (approx 50% of space), but low market penetration Sub-Superfast (in State Aid terms) Backhaul quality and capacity National ISPs High Quality (>10Mbps) Local compromise? Problematic for BDUK?

  20. WISP coverage Possible extension?
