Building Digital UK (BDUK) is carrying out an Open Market Review (OMR) in 6 areas including Cheshire to help identify premises that may be suitable for future public funding for gigabit-capable broadband.

BDUK is seeking information and supporting evidence from suppliers – in relation to the presence of gigabit capable broadband infrastructure within the project areas. If you have existing network coverage or plan to build infrastructure within the next three years, we actively encourage you to respond to this OMR.

This consultation opens on 6th April 2022 and closes on 6th May 2022.

To respond to this Open Market Review, and for more information, please see BDUK’s page below:
