£200 million broadband investment in rural Cumbria
Westmorland Gazette reports that broadband provider, Fibrus, has revealed its plans for its roll out across Great Britain - starting with ‘underserved towns and villages’ in Cumbria
In a staged approach, the expansion from Fibrus will see it cover over 40 towns and villages aims to reach over 113,000 premises in the next three years.
