Garve and District Broadband Update
Post in Utilities by Steve JonesAnyone interested in joining the board?
After four and a half years on this project, the current directors wish to stand down at the AGM.
There are investigations going on currently to understand exactly the broadband speeds throughout Garve village. Despite all houses now being connected to the fibre box or the exchange, and the advertised speeds for all these houses on the BT website and the Digital Scotland website being at least 30 Mbps, there may be some properties that are not getting this sort of speed.
GDB will not close down the company until these initial investigations have been concluded.
Should there be a further project required for Garve village, possibly installing Fibre To The Premises, then this will have to be taken forward with a new Board. Existing Board members will of course be willing to help and advise. These projects are now a well trodden path for our community and for OpenReach.
If anyone is interested in being on the new Board of Garve and District Broadband to take this work forward, then please let me know directly by the end of September 2020.
