Netomnia has reached an agreement with UK housing association Peabody to transform broadband access for residents across their housing stock in Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Kent, boosting digital connectivity.
The altnet provider approached Peabody to help future-proof its properties as part of its wider rollout in key locations and providing households with reliable fibre infrastructure, enhancing the overall living experience for residents.
Through a non-exclusive framework wayleave agreement, Peabody has allowed Netomnia to install cabling and a fibre infrastructure to properties owned and managed by Peabody.
The framework is a bulk agreement, enabling fibre infrastructure to be deployed without delay.
Following extensive engagement with Peabody, the agreed wayleave and subsequent network installation will enable residents to experience the benefits of full-fibre broadband and fast speeds of up to 10Gbps.
Once the rollout is complete, residents can place an order for internet service through Netomnia’s partner ISPs.
Elizabeth Connelly, Head of Landscape and Telecoms, commented: “We want all our residents to have access to faster, affordable and more reliable broadband.
“To do this, we're working on a strategic programme that will make sure all our residents have access to fast broadband and the benefits that connectivity brings.”
