Rathmell and Wigglesworth Broadband is a group of residents working to bring hyper fast broadband internet to our two villages through our own B4RN (Broadband for the Rural North) scheme. After a lot of hard work the group is delighted to announce that we are now ready to move ahead with bringing B4RN into our community!
UPDATE AT FEBRUARY 2018:
-
We now have all wayleaves in place for Phase 1
-
B4RN have given us a detailed costing for Phase 1 and other routes
-
We are ready to start taking investments
-
Digging can start when we have reached our investment target, we aim to be ready to get into fields when weather conditions allow from April/May
-
Everything you need to know about investment and links to the relevant forms are in this document. It also contains route cost breakdowns, maps of areas covered by routes and answers to likely questions.
-
We are planning an Open Public Meeting to be held at The Plough on Tuesday 6 March at 7.30pm which will be attended by Dave Ryall from B4RN where you can ask questions in person, but all the information is in the document above, so there’s no need to wait for the meeting if you are ready to invest
-
If you don’t have the means to print off an investment form we will have copies at the meeting, or we can also drop you a copy off if you request one from us
So finally the power is in our hands to be able to bring hyperfast internet to our community, let’s all do what we can to make this a reality and give ourselves a truly great asset both for now and for future generations.
