GoFibre adds two Aberdeenshire towns to rollout

GoFibre has begun extending its fibre network to the Aberdeenshire towns of Portlethen and Newtonhill.

Once complete, the network will be able to connect approximately 4,500 local residents. The altnet has already begun connecting communities in Stonehaven.

Sam Calvert, CRO, GoFibre said: “Sub-standard digital connectivity across Scotland’s towns and villages, including Aberdeenshire, has long been an issue facing local communities who have been largely left behind when infrastructure upgrades have been put in place. 

“With our construction efforts now underway, we’ll be doing everything we can to play our part in the solution, helping to tackle the digital divide and equip residents and businesses in Portlethen and Newtonhill with the tools they need to drive success and innovation, both now and in the future.”
