Rejected petition Fund fibre broadband in S35 4GN
Government/local council to fund bringing fibre to copper lines (FTTC) or fibre to house (true fibre) in the upper high green Area in Sheffield.
More details
Open reach will not put the monies forward to extend faster and more stable Internet speeds to high green and will only install if community/business or government funded. We have unstable and intermittent lines on adsl. It's impossible to watch or stream programmes online or for children to to use online media for homework. We need to be brung into modern times and not left behind.
