Devon County Council and Somerset County Council are working to bring faster broadband to the area. With a successful bid for c. £30m of funding from government (BDUK), and a commitment of c.£10m from each county council, preparations are currently underway to procure and deliver the best solution possible for rural Devon and Somerset – the "final third", rural areas that are unlikely to benefit from commercial investment.

With the growth of the Internet and the rise in online services, not having access to a reliable fast broadband connection can put you at a serious disadvantage. This is why we are supporting Somerset County Council in their ambition to deliver Superfast broadband across the County by 2015.
