I was pleased to meet with Adrian Smith at CityFibre, based in Goring, who are bringing gigabit speed to Worthing and Arun communities.
We understand the vast advantages of seamless, future-proof, high-speed connection. It is like turning on a tap.
Libraries, emergency services, housing offices and many other important public sector offices have already been connected by the teams at CityFibre.
The future of a network of high-speed community wifi is exciting. There are challenges in certain communities, notably private estates. People will notice the difference, in some areas an improvement 100 fold. The visual differences will be negligible.
The new technology allows ultra-flexible fibre optics to be hung from telegraph pole to telegraph pole, house to house, ending the obtrusive need to dig up otherwise pristine pavements and roads.
