Llandovery

I'd be grateful for any info from those in the know as to what's going on in Llandovery w.r.t. fibre.

SuperFast Cymru has this exchange as being in line for fibre rollout in this exchange area due to start June 2015.

So far so good.

I live about 2 miles NE on the A483 from the cab that my phone line is connected to, Cab 2, so never thought that I'd benefit from fibre due to the distance from the cab.

Well, today while driving home I come across some temporary traffic lights and see some contractors with a big drum of black and yellow stripe cable feeding it into a hole in the ground and another contractor pulling it up the next manhole along, only a few hundred metres from where I live.

Now I'd always thought that our line was carried by the poles along the side of the road, but be that as it may, does this mean that there's going to be a new cab appearing closer to where I live or are we, holds breath, going to get FTTP?

Thanks in advance.

It is looking like FTTP is on the plans for cabinet 2 on Llandovery exchange so maybe they have started the work

Thanks

If I crossed my fingers any harder they'd be broken!

Is there any other reason for the contractors to be putting black/yellow trunking in the ground other than for FTTP for properties in the vicinity?

There is another exchange, Cynghordy, a few miles in the other direction so is it possible that this fibre would be used to supply Cynghordy and not us?

Maybe passing through the area to reach another cabinet, would need to study maps to see the probability of that.

Most likely to be for FTTP though.

Thanks again.

AFAIK, there are no other cabs on the way to Cynghordy.
