Broadband speeds in CF32
Share of CF32 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 791 postcodes in the district.
Gigabit coverage dips to 64.7% across the 791 postcodes, the weakest in the Bridgend-Cardiff cohort, reflecting this district's outer suburban and developing fringe character. Wireless networks support 27.5% of postcodes, providing gap coverage where traditional wired infrastructure is limited. The critical metric is the 26.8% occupying the 30 to 300 Mbps band, a substantial middle tier suggesting limited cable gigabit deployment relative to central urban zones. Below-10Mbps premises are rare at 1.2%, indicating nearly universal broadband access even where speed is limited. Superfast reaches 93.9%, providing reliable baseline broadband across most addresses. The speed split reflects a more rural and developing suburban mix, typical of Bridgend's outer fringe where infrastructure investment remains ongoing.
