Dorset hopes to secure Super-fast Internet by 2012 Olympics
A leading news portal based in the United Kingdom has reported that business firms in Dorset are being urged to support a campaign that hopes to secure super-fast next generation fibre optic broadband internet access across the area.
It has been already fixed that the 2012 Olympic Games’ sailing events would be held at the National Sailing Academy of Weymouth and Portland where the broadband internet network will be installed.
The County Council of Dorset sees it as a unique opportunity presented to the county, which on the other hand also provided the area with a fast-track provision of high quality fibre optic broadband internet access to both businesses and homes across the county.
January 31 is the last day for registering the feedback on the proposals.
One of the first venues in the United Kingdom to be readied for the Olympic Games of 2012, the National Sailing Academy of Weymouth and Portland will be installed with a super-fast fibre optic broadband internet connection by BT with a view to enable smooth and swift communication during the event.
Meanwhile, a survey is being carried out in the county by a partnership striving to build a lasting legacy to the Olympic Games in the county. The partnership that developed the high-speed digital connectivity in Dorset survey is known as Team Dorset. The partnership said that it aimed at getting data on the demand from across the county’s economy for being helped with a proposal.
