Programme Update
Avanti is pleased to announcement the first deployment of broadband to Scottish households and businesses under the Scottish Government Broadband Reach Programme. On June 26th, Avanti was awarded the Scottish Executive's contract to deploy broadband to those areas of Scotland currently unable to make the best use of the Internet.
Avanti is very pleased to have successfully commenced the deployment of broadband to those areas of Scotland where no other viable solution exists. This is a significant step to Avanti solving a digital divide problem which has significant social and economic ramifications for Scottish families and businesses. The rollout programme is now well underway and scheduled for completion in 2009.
Avanti aims to utilise a mix of technologies (including satellite and wireless depending on location and population density) to deliver a broadband solution to homes and businesses registered with the Scottish Government's Broadband Reach Programme. Every registered person will be eligible to receive an affordable Avanti Broadband Service on special terms, including:
No installation costs
No connection costs
Affordable monthly fees
