Gigabit and full fibre are both at 75.8 per cent across BS29, below neighbouring BS23 (85.4 per cent) and BS24 (78.8 per cent). This lag reflects rural characteristics and patchy deployment across the smaller district. Superfast coverage sits at 94.6 per cent, indicating moderate VDSL or older fibre where full FTTP has not yet reached. Speed distribution shows 75.8 per cent with gigabit capability and 18.8 per cent in the 30 to 300 Mbps band, with the remainder operating at lower rates. No postcodes fall below the universal service obligation, but the lag in gigabit deployment marks BS29 as one of North Somerset's less-densely-fibre-served areas. The smaller district likely has fewer urban nodes to anchor fibre investment.
