Wakefield MP Simon Lightwood recently visited CityFibre’s £21m city-wide build for a tour of the works in Thornes.
Lightwood met representatives from build partner O'Connor Utilities Ltd (OCU), to learn about the typical build process, including excavation and reinstatement.
Area Manager Steve Moore, CityFibre’s Area Manager for Wakefield, said: “Our ambition is to bolster UK towns and cities by delivering a state-of-the-art network that will future-proof their digital foundations.”
Lightwood added: “Modernising our digital infrastructure is so essential for driving economic growth and innovation.
“Fibre will have a tremendous impact on the digital capabilities of both residents and local businesses across Wakefield.”
In Wakefield, customers can sign up to UK launch partner, Vodafone, on selected Vodafone Pro Broadband plans, as well as Air Broadband, IDNet, Octaplus, Networks Limited, Trunk Networks and Yayzi Broadband.
