Broadband speeds in CT2
Share of CT2 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 732 postcodes in the district.
CT2 shows Canterbury's connectivity variance and rural challenge. Superfast availability at 89.9% trails most comparable districts, leaving one in ten premises below this tier. Gigabit reaches only 57.7%, among the lower tiers in the entire sample. Fixed wireless is notably prevalent at 53%, indicating substantial zones where wired cable or fibre infrastructure is uneconomical or impractical. Below 10 Mbps premises account for 2.4%, a meaningful minority. Speed distribution is 57.7% ultrafast (300+), 32.2% superfast-midrange, 2.4% below 10 Mbps, and 0.1% outside the universal service obligation. CT2 reflects Canterbury's semi-rural character and its persistent last-mile connectivity gaps. The dual infrastructure approach (wired and wireless) does not fully resolve service variance across the postcode. Wireless coverage provides backup infrastructure for households where fixed-line options are limited or competing choices..
