The timetable for fibre in our area is now 2030, but that's followed by "the timetable may change." Based on evidence of ScotGov's & BT's interest in our area, that means the timetable will be elongated, not compressed.
You'd imagine rural areas like ours would have some sort of priority for the £400m allocated to this, given the economic benefits of good infrastructure, but profit beats the common good.
Before someone says "contact your MSP/MP", years of doing that have achieved nothing.
