Vodafone has extended its Gigafast broadband rollout to Birmingham, Bristol and Liverpool, meaning Gigabit speed broadband is now available in 15 towns and cities and is set to become available in three million homes and businesses across the UK over the next year.
The news also means Vodafone’s Gigafast Broadband service is now live on multiple infrastructure partners.
The new cities follow a commercial deal signed with Openreach in November last year.
The service will initially be available to 400,000 premises across the three cities expanding to over 500,000 premises by mid-2021 as Openreach extends its infrastructure.
Meanwhile, the previous 12 towns and cities are part of an ongoing agreement with CityFibre.
Nick Jeffery, CEO, Vodafone UK, said: “Birmingham, Bristol and Liverpool now have some of the fastest mobile and broadband speeds in the UK.
"Gigafast cities are the cities that will play their part in shaping the future of the UK.”
