Project Gigabit

 This week  the government confirmed that one million properties in hard-to-reach communities can now access lightning-fast broadband thanks to Project Gigabit, as we stick to the plan to speed up interest connections for families and businesses and grow the economy.

• Fast broadband speeds are essential to modern day life, which is why we announced Project Gigabit in 2021. 

• Thanks to the Conservative long-term plan, more than one million properties in hard-to-reach communities have now been upgraded with access to lightning-fast gigabit-capable broadband, helping to grow the economy and improve services for households. 

• Conservatives will sticking with our long-term plan to improve access to the fastest broadband, allowing households to connect to the internet seamlessly to make work and leisure easier as we build a brighter future for all.
