Broadband speeds in PH3
Share of PH3 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 245 postcodes in the district.
This is a fragmented district. Fewer than half reach gigabit speeds. Over a third sit in the superfast (30 to 300 Mbps) band, which is competent but not exceptional. The 15.2% below 10 Mbps cohort is the highest in Perth and Kinross: roughly 37 postcodes lack adequate connectivity. Yet just 1.9% miss USO entirely, suggesting wired infrastructure exists but is dated. PH3 reflects partial rollout: some postcodes have been upgraded to fibre or cable, others remain on vintage copper networks. Households here need to verify carefully; outcomes depend sharply on postcode. The 36.1% in the superfast tier represents solid middle-ground infrastructure, but the spread remains concerning.
