Project Gigabit

This UK-wide project, launched by the UK Government via Building Digital UK (BDUK), sources interested providers to build full-fibre infrastructure in rural areas. It hopes to achieve 95% UK-wide gigabit capability by 2025 and as close to 100% as possible by 2032.

BDUK divided the UK into ‘lots’ that covered geographical areas. Lots 5, 7, 10, and 23 cover Lincolnshire.

CityFibre has been awarded Lots 5 and 7. Cambridgeshire and Norfolk are the lead local bodies, and they are getting input from Lincolnshire. Lincolnshire has approximately 5,000 eligible properties, and CityFibre is now deploying the lots.

CityFibre has been awarded Lot 10. Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire are the lead local bodies. Lincolnshire has approximately 12,000 eligible properties. At this point in time, CityFibre haven’t yet commenced deployment and we will update as soon as there is further news.

Quickline Communications has been awarded Lot 23, one of the largest in the UK. Lincolnshire, North Lincolnshire, North East Lincolnshire, and East Riding are the lead local bodies. Lincolnshire has approximately 47,000 eligible properties, and Quickline Communications is now deploying the lot.

We expect to complete these projects by the end of 2028, but they may extend beyond that date.
