Gigabit-capable connections have reached 78 per cent of postcodes in ST15, while superfast broadband (30 Mbps+) passes 94 per cent.

Only 0.4 per cent fall short of the Government's Universal Service Obligation threshold of 10 Mbps, a rare gap for an area this size.

The remnant 6 per cent will need to investigate terrestrial alternatives in their immediate area.
