Switching our 'fibre box' casings to 85% recycled plastic is removing 100t of new plastic each year- the weight of eight double-decker buses! 🚍 With our engineers installing around 2 million ‘fibre boxes' annually this is a big step forward to #LetsReachZero👣 #PlasticFreeJuly

It’s exciting to see #R100 contract connections going live for the first time in Fionnphort. Work by @WeAreOpenreach continues across Mull and neighbouring Luing expanding the reach of R100 and @ScotGov investment in providing access to faster broadband across rural Scotland.

I’m constantly amazed at the scale and size of this programme. The complexity to deliver a single premise in some cases is staggering. The short video provides a bit of insight into the planning / survey and delivery process. @WeAreOpenreach
Digital Connectivity Scotland@DigConnectScot

Watch our new video explaining how #R100 contracts are delivered, from survey to service availability. Connecting thousands of extremely hard-to-reach locations to full fibre, R100 is one of the most ambitious digital infrastructure programmes in Europe. @weareopenreach

50 minute crossing Split to Brâc €6. Modern ferry, about a dozen sailings a day. Why can't Scotland get this right?
