Building Digital UK is seeking information to help identify which homes and businesses could be eligible for future support through Project Gigabit.
The latest National Rolling Open Market Review is examining where gigabit-capable broadband is already available, or expected to be delivered commercially within the next three years.
This information will help determine which premises may require public investment because they are not commercially viable. That makes the review particularly relevant to rural and hard-to-reach communities, where gaps in commercial broadband rollout can leave homes and businesses behind.
Although the review is primarily aimed at broadband infrastructure suppliers, local authorities, residents, businesses and other stakeholders can also respond. They are invited to provide information about whether a particular address or area currently has, or is expected to receive, gigabit-capable coverage, including the postcode or Unique Property Reference Number and the nature of any concern.
Building Digital UK will use the evidence to inform eligibility for Project Gigabit interventions, including procurements, GigaHubs and the UK Gigabit Voucher Scheme.
Responses must be submitted by 1 October 2026.
