Digital Infrastructure

Most of Wolverhampton can currently get superfast and ultrafast speeds - check current connectivity in your area.

The rollout of full fibre broadband is underway across Wolverhampton which will ensure that future demands for faster internet speeds are met allowing for video on demand and the greater use of IOT devices. With faster broadband speeds, residents will be able to enjoy better internet for working from home, accessing and interacting with services, leisure, entertainment and ongoing improvements will soon revolutionise daily life through adoption of smart technologies.
