Fibre connectivity

When it will be built

Central government is committed to making sure gigabit-capable will be available nationwide by 2030. See, Gigabit-broadband in the UK: Government targets and policy - House of Commons Library (parliament.uk).

Many fibre providers (such as CityFibre, Virgin Media, Openreach, Grain Connect) are investing in fibre roll out across the UK.

South Tyneside Council are working closely with various fibre providers to help their roll out within the borough over the coming years.

Contractors will be in touch with residents when they are looking to install in their local area.
