Oliver was on hand this morning to switch on the new superfast broadband cabinet at Birch Green together with BT Director Bill Murphy, Councillor Ken Crofton and members of the Birch Green Broadband Committee.
This week the Government announced extra funding for rural broadband and this means an enhanced service across much of Oliver’s constituency with planners confident that the Buntingford, Puckeridge and Ashwell areas will be improved. Firm plans are expected later in the Spring.
Commenting, Oliver said “I have been pressing the Government and BT for an enhanced service in my constituency and the opening of the Birch Green cabinet and the news this week show that an enhanced service is being delivered in a number of places already and it is on its way in many more.”
