If you've not found the Openreach developer guides yet then it is worth a look on the website and a read through. Interestingly it says “We’ll supply all the Openreach materials you need to build and install the network on your site, for free.” Now this might only apply to developers but would be worth asking especially if Virgin were to offer their ducting for free.
There is also a note that says “For all Single Dwelling Units (SDU) duct must be terminated on the external surface of the property.” so I’d be aiming to build a chamber where the existing duct enters your garden (to save them digging up the pavement at my cost) and then a straight run with a swept end coming out the ground just outside the extension where you want the new cables to end up.
I’d start with a phone call to both saying you want to move the termination point and explaining that you’d like the ground works doing to fit with your timetable and see what they say. You might find the cost they come up with means it isn't worth you going to the effort of doing it yourself.
One more point, in your first post you mentioned ‘business’ and if these are business lines then I’d expect the cost to be more.
