DC13-336 September 30, 2013 SUPERFAST DC13-336 September 30, 2013 SUPERFAST CYMRU: ANOTHER 151 COMMUNITIES TO BENEFIT FROM FIBRE BROADBAND Another 151 towns and villages in Wales will get high speed fibre broadband by spring 2015 as part of the Superfast Cymru roll-out, the Welsh Government and BT announced today. Information about where and when communities will get fibre over the next 18 months as a result of Superfast Cymru has been published on www.superfast-cymru.com today. Once the roll-out is completed in these communities it will mean another 206,000 homes and businesses the length and breadth of Wales will be able to access the technology which provides speeds many times faster than those available today. They will join another 120 communities in Wales either already live or due to be switched on as part of Superfast Cymru by the end of spring next year. It is expected that these two phases – which between them cover 480,000 premises - will help extend the availability of fibre broadband to around 75 per cent of Welsh homes and businesses when areas covered by the private sector are also taken into account. Superfast Cymru will help the Welsh Government achieve its overall aim of taking fibre broadband to 96 per cent of homes and businesses in Wales by the end of the project in spring 2016. The new communities announced today are in Caerphilly, Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion, Conwy, Denbighshire, Flintshire, Monmouthshire, Neath Port Talbot, Pembrokeshire, Powys and Wrexham amongst others (See complete list in Notes to Editors). Detailed information about the roll-out to spring 2015 is available on the newly updated programme website at www.superfast-cymru.com . You can also keep in touch with the programme via social media on Twitter (@superfastcymru) or Facebook at www.facebook.com/superfast-cymru . Ken Skates, Minister for Skills and Innovation, said: “The dedication of the Superfast Cymru programme is clearly illustrated through our commitment to delivering superfast fibre broadband across Wales. It is a significant step forward that we are providing our long term plans on our website to help individuals and businesses find out when they will be able to discover the benefits of superfast fibre broadband.” Ed Hunt, BT programme director for Superfast Cymru added: “We are making great progress, passing on average more than 5,000 premises a week with fibre broadband between now and the end of March 2015. Through this programme we expect to reach close to half a million by spring 2015 with a year still to go. That’s a third of all homes and businesses in Wales, and three quarters when combined with BT’s own commercial roll-out. “We know how important it is that as many people as possible can take advantage of fibre broadband. Through BT’s own commercial roll-out and now with Superfast Cymru we are taking world class speeds the length and breadth of Wales to some of the more rural as well as urban areas.” “It is vital that we do all we can to keep people in Wales as up to date as we possibly can on the roll-out and the website is a great place to get the latest details.” Openreach, BT’s local network business, is primarily deploying fibre-to-the-cabinet (FTTC) technology, where the fibre runs from the exchange to a local roadside cabinet. In addition to download speeds generally above 30 Mbps and up to 80Mbps, FTTC also delivers upload speeds of up to 20Mbps1 — and could deliver even faster speeds in the future. According to the regulator Ofcom, the current average UK residential broadband download speed is 14.7Mbps. The Superfast Cymru roll-out will significantly increase that average speed. At home, fibre broadband enables a family to simultaneously download a movie, watch a TV replay service, surf the internet and play games online all at the same time. A whole album can be downloaded in less than 30 seconds and a feature length HD movie in less than 10 minutes, whilst high-resolution photos can be uploaded to Facebook in seconds. The high-speed network installed by Openreach will be available from a number of suppliers providing broadband services to homes and businesses. ENDS Notes to Editors 1 These are the top wholesale speeds available from Openreach to all service providers; speeds offered by service providers may vary. The latest images of the Superfast Cymru roll-out are available for download at: http://imagelibrary.btplc.com/assetbank- btplc/action/browseItems?categoryId=597&categoryTypeId=1 Super-fast fibre optic broadband can be delivered as “fibre to the cabinet” (FTTC) or “fibre to the premises” (FTTP). FTTC is where the fibre connection is from the exchange to the street side cabinet with the remainder of the connection being over copper. Superfast Cymru will provide the majority of business and residential premises with the capability of accessing broadband at speeds in excess of 30Mbps by 2016. This is in line with the EU's policy of widespread Superfast broadband access by 2020. The programme will also enable access to speeds of over 100Mbps in a significant number of areas of Wales.

  • A9: Drainage and Wastewater Management Plan 2018
    A9: Drainage and Wastewater Management Plan 2018 Contents 1. Introduction 3 2. Future pressures 4 3. Approach – planning for the future 5 4. Our planning tools 6 5. Defining our planning boundaries 8 6. Risk based catchment screening 10 7. Conclusion and next steps 18 APPENDICES A Strategic Planning Areas 20 B Tactical Planning Areas 109 C Catchment Plans 150 2 1.0 INTRODUCTION We are developing our first Drainage and Wastewater Management Plan Every day we drain over 2.7 billion litres of wastewater from our customers’ properties. We then treat this water at our wastewater treatment work before returning the cleaned water back to the environment. Our wastewater system consists of over 94,000km of sewers and drains, 4400 pumping stations and 1010 treatment works. This system has to continue to operate effectively day in day out but also needs to be able to cope with future pressures and this is where our Drainage and Wastewater Management Plan comes in. Our Drainage and Wastewater Management Plan will cover the investments we plan to make over the next 5 year period, 2020 to 2025, as well setting out a long term (25 year) strategy for how we are going to deliver a reliable and sustainable wastewater service. The first full publication of Drainage and Wastewater Management Plans (DWMPs) is not scheduled until 2022/23. We have chosen to provide a draft of our initial findings to: support the strategic investments we are proposing for AMP7; demonstrate our commitment to long term, sustainable, wastewater planning; and, provide an early benchmark to support and encourage the sector in development of DWMPs - in keeping with our position as a sector leader and innovator.
