Broadband speeds in TD4
Share of TD4 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 105 postcodes in the district.
Full fibre passes just 21.6% of TD4 postcodes, placing this Scottish Borders outcode well below the UK's 69% gigabit average. Gigabit availability matches fibre penetration exactly at 21.6%. Superfast penetration approaches saturation at 97.7%, demonstrating universal coverage by earlier-era infrastructure. The most striking feature is the speed distribution skew: 76.1% of postcodes sit in the 30-300 Mbps superfast band as their maximum capability, reflecting copper networks still serving the majority. Only 21.6% reach gigabit capability via modern fibre. Below 0.4% lack Universal Service Obligation minima, indicating universal basic access across the area. TD4 represents a Scottish Borders postcode that received superfast infrastructure investment during earlier rollout phases but has lagged significantly in the gigabit-era modernisation wave. Premises here are adequately served for everyday use but cannot access premium speeds.
