Fort William 2040 (FW2040) projects - Improved Internet Connection Speeds - extension of a full fibre network between public buildings in Fort William

Project complete - through the Building Digital UK (BDUK) Local Full Fibre Networks (LFFN) programme, full fibre connections have been provided to public buildings in Fort William. HIE funding secured additional benefits by also connecting Banavie Primary School, which provided an opportunity to support businesses in Banavie and Corpach and ensured the fibre optic link could be bridged across the canal to Lochaber High School. This was part of a wider four-year LFFN project across Inverness, Fort William, Thurso, and Wick.
