Broadband speeds in GL10
Share of GL10 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 496 postcodes in the district.
Superfast coverage is excellent at 98.9%, placing nearly all premises above the 30 Mbps baseline. Full fibre sits at 0%, meaning gigabit capability must derive entirely from cable networks across this Stroud postcode. 84.4% of premises reach gigabit (300+ Mbps) via cable, while 14.5% have superfast cable only (30-100 Mbps typical), and 0.3% fall below Universal Service Obligation thresholds. The technology picture is purely cable-driven: hybrid fibre-coaxial cable gigabit and cable superfast, with no fibre option available. This concentration reflects cable infrastructure planning that has prioritised gigabit delivery via existing cable plant rather than full fibre investment. Cable gigabit speeds match fibre for downloads, but uploads are typically 10-50 Mbps rather than symmetric gigabit.
