Connectivity boost for Yorkshire cities as Quickline joins full fibre network

The subsidiary of a broadband provider has joined a full-fibre network in order to provide gigabit services in four new Yorkshire locations.

Quickline Communications - a subsidiary of Bigblu Broadband, has joined CityFibre’s full fibre networks to deliver gigabit broadband services across the region.

By joining its network, Quickline’s ultrafast full fibre services will be available to homes in Doncaster, Leeds, Huddersfield and Batley & Dewsbury throughout 2021.

Andrew Walwyn, chief executive officer of Bigblu Broadband, commented: “We are delighted that this enables Quickline to further expand its gigabit service reach.

“We have seen the rapid progress made by Quickline in recent months and this provides further validation of its capabilities. We look forward to working closely with CityFibre in further closing the digital divide.”

Rob Hamlin, chief commercial officer at CityFibre, added: “By welcoming Quickline to our networks, we are making fast and reliable broadband available to even more people across the country.

“With most of us more reliant on our home broadband than ever, it is important that communities can choose from the best services available. We are excited to work with Quickline in the months and years ahead as we continue to expand.”
