Broadband on way

VARIOUS rural locations across Co. Wicklow are to benefit from the roll out of fibre power broadband as part of the National Broadband Plan.

Askanagap, Ballinglen, Ballyconnell, Ballycoog, Coolboy, Coolkenna, Glencree, Grange Con, Hollywood, Knockananna, Knockanarrigan, Moyne, Rathdangan, Redcross and Stratford are some of the 1000 rural locations identified as lacking in this area and it is hoped that the improved fibre based connections will benefit both commercial and private users.

The Department of Communicatiosn, Energy and Natural Resources outlined this week that an implementation strategy is to be published later this year.
