Copper to Full Fibre

[Bremford]

Hi All,

I live on a private cul-de-sac (gravel road) with 16 houses on it. Is there a way to find out when my road is likely to be switched from copper lines to full fibre? I know the end date is late 2027, but I need better broadband. Quickest download I have had is 7MBs.

Is there a site you can put in your postcode, and it will tell you the planned month/year?

@Bremford Not really as work changes all the time, and if you are one of the unlucky ones you may just never get it. OR fibre checker will give you some idea possibly!

The target date for the completion of the commercial phase of the national FTTP rollout is December 2026, with PSTN switch-off scheduled for end of January 2027: around 85% of UK addresses will be within reach of Ultrafast broadband by then.

Remaining copper circuits do not cease to function at that point, but a VoIP capable router will be required for voice telephony.
