Broadband speeds in TD3
Share of TD3 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 45 postcodes in the district.
Full fibre passes 41.7% of this tiny Scottish Borders postcode, with fixed wireless adding 10.2% to gigabit totals. Gigabit availability stands at 41.7% combined. Superfast penetration at 95% means nearly all addresses have modern connectivity. The speed split shows 41.7% gigabit-capable via fibre and wireless, 53.3% in the superfast band, and negligible below-USO presence. TD3's reliance on fixed wireless at 10.2% is substantial for such a small postcode, suggesting terrain or deployment strategy favoured wireless links for reaching scattered premises. A slight superfast majority reflects legacy infrastructure still serving over half the postcode area.
