Superfast broadband rollout starts.. but not here yet!

We were promised an update from BT/CCC this month and this week a document called Final Exchange Roll-Out May 2013 has finally been published – but all it tells us in Natland is that our exchanges (Kendal and Sedgwick) are in ‘Tranche 3’ - for which they say ‘the desktop evaluation has been completed and the detailed survey and designed is planned but not yet started’. Given that the first Tranche (Carlisle, Penrith, Dalton, Ulverston, Workington and Maryport) is only expected to be implemented by the end of December, let’s not be holding our breath!
