Digital Leicestershire Broadband

Digital Leicestershire is a programme which delivers coverage of digital services across Leicestershire. Since their Superfast Leicestershire (digital-leicestershire.org.uk) project, we have access to much faster and more reliable service, with coverage which has risen to 99.2% across the borough of Hinckley and Bosworth. 

The delivery of gigabit-capable, full-fibre broadband across our borough has since further advanced by the installation of 13 sites which enable this technology. These sites include a number of different schools and libraries. To find out more, please visit Project Gigahubs (digital-leicestershire.org.uk)

Currently, building still continues as part of Project Gigabit. Project Gigabit (gov.uk) is the UK Government’s £5 billion programme to bring gigabit-capable broadband to homes and businesses in hard-to-reach areas. It targets locations not covered by commercial broadband plans – mostly rural and remote communities that risk being left behind.
