Openreach is celebrating the milestone of reaching 90% coverage of its full fibre rollout across Northern Ireland – with the region becoming the first within the Openreach UK network to hit this target.

Gigaclear has doubled its customer base in the last two years, connecting its 75,000th customer back in April.
The altnet celebrated by bringing flowers to the milestone customer, Jean Heath MBE from Oxfordshire, and donating to one of her favourite charities, Sunshine Cat Rescue.
CMO Nick Rawlings said: “Our strategy is to take full fibre broadband to underserved rural communities where others fear to tread.
“We’re building our network and accelerating sales at a faster rate than ever before, as more and more consumers demand faster speeds and more reliable broadband.”
