Nexfibre has reported just under 1.3 million premises passed and RFS in its latest quarterly update.
The company has also announced build locations for 2025 and early 2026, with the next stage of the rollout resulting in high volumes of build in Eastbourne, Weymouth and Nantwich.
It also plans a significantly expanded footprint in the previously underserved areas of North Wales and Scotland.
The company has set a target of reaching 5 million premises across the UK by 2026, with just under 1.3 million premises passed and RFS – up from 986,000 premises in the last quarterly update.
Rajiv Datta, CEO of nexfibre, said, “It is thanks to the hard work of our team, our partners – including our build partner Virgin Media O2 – and our investors that we have been able to build at this pace and achieve this reach in such a short period of time.
“We have exciting plans for 2025 and into 2026, which is part of our commitment to provide a nationwide alternative network and the competition in the fibre access market that the UK needs and deserves. Our work matters because, at its heart, better broadband improves the lives of people and communities across the country, boosts economic growth and will help the UK lead the digital future.”
