Broadband speeds in G68
Share of G68 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 327 postcodes in the district.
Superfast speeds reach 94.1% of G68 postcodes. Full fibre sits at 82.5%, the lowest threshold in the East Dunbartonshire cluster, meaning over one premises in six relies on cable or alternative networks for gigabit access. The speed distribution shows 82.9% at gigabit capability, 11.2% in the 30-300 Mbps superfast band, and 0.4% below Universal Service Obligation. That 11% superfast-only slice is notably larger than in higher-availability codes, reflecting incomplete full fibre rollout. Despite the lower fibre percentage, cable gigabit networks still deliver most premises to 300+ Mbps.
