Description

Balquhidder Community Broadband has created an P2P FTTH infrastructure for Balquhidder Glen and the surrounding area. The Community Interest Company (CIC) is working in partnership with Bogons and with funding from Bogons, the EU (via LEADER) and Stirling Council. With more than half of the network backbone now laid and the connection of households continuing apace, Bogons and BCB will provide an update on progress and on the technical and logistical challenges overcome in delivering a network over often hostile terrain.

Summary

This will be an update of the dig progress on the Digital Glen in Balquhidder.
