Wilbraham’s Gigabit Project
Project Overviews
Wilbrahams’ Gigabit Project
The Wilbrahams successfully applied and obtained approval from the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport (DCMS) to install full-fibre infrastructure that will deliver hyperfast broadband to Little and Great Wilbraham. This scheme is called the Gigabit Voucher Scheme (GVS). The project was approved by DCMS in March 2021.
Cambridge Fibre (CF), a Cambridge-based company, is building the infrastructure, using existing BT infrastructure such as ducts and poles. This method minimising the use to dig up the road and makes the process quick and efficient. The current estimate from CF is that connections to the Wilbrahams will begin in Autumn 2021. All residents who subscribed to the GVS will be connected latest by March 2022.
