Freedom Fibre is no longer able to complete a contract to roll out gigabit-capable broadband to 12,000 premises in north Shropshire in full, due to changes in the external market, in a new report from the government’s Building Digital UK (BDUK) Agency.
The altnet provider was initially awarded the contract in 2023 and has already completed the build to 2,500 premises, with a further 1,000 aiming to be live by the end of this month.
The outstanding 8,500 premises are being removed from the contract, and BDUK is looking at alternative suppliers who can connect these.
The development follows several other network operators also dropped out of or scaled-back their build plans under Project Gigabit, including Voneus for mid-west Shropshire and FullFibre for the Derbyshire Peak District and Herefordshire.
