Broadband speeds in PA9

Superfast broadband is available to 92.7% of PA9, but gigabit penetration is lower at 28.8%. The modal band here is the 30 to 300 Mbps tier, which accounts for nearly two-thirds of postcodes.

The infrastructure here represents the middle stage of network modernisation, where superfast is nearly universal but gigabit remains concentrated in select areas. Demand for gigabit services will face capacity constraints in many neighbourhoods.
