This was a part of the telecommunication big-wig’s plans to link about 250,000 premises throughout the south-west to their high speed broadband facilities through the year 2012. This would also include Barnwood and Gloucester as super-fast broadband beneficiaries.

The telecommunications stalwarts have ideas of providing fibre optic broadband connections to two thirds of the businesses houses as well as households across the country. Regional Director for the south-West at BT, John Reynolds was stated to have said that their newest main investment was a great encouragement for Gloucestershire. He also stated that the venture would provide great business speeds to tiny as well as middle sized business companies throughout the area at far lesser prices than what is being presently offered thereby aiding them in finance the opportunities for jobs, get into new markets and to encourage competition. Mr. Reynolds stated that quicker upload speeds are a great advantage for pliable and remote working conditions, cutting down on overhead expenditure in offices and enhancing the balance between employees’ work and home.
