Broadband speeds in TD2
Share of TD2 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 104 postcodes in the district.
Full fibre passes only 40.9% of TD2 postcodes, yet gigabit availability climbs to 45.5% - a gap explained by fixed wireless deployment at 18.3%, the highest proportion in this batch. This wireless provision bridges the infrastructure gap, offering gigabit alternatives where fibre is absent. Superfast penetration at 96.9% means nearly all premises have at least 30 Mbps connectivity. The speed split shows 45.5% gigabit-capable (fibre and wireless combined), 51.4% in the superfast band, and 0.1% below Universal Service Obligation thresholds. TD2's reliance on fixed wireless reflects geography or deployment strategy where terrain favoured wireless over underground fibre installation.
