Sick and tired of slow internet? Well, our area is to benefit from Openreach's latest broadband upgrade plans.

Full fibre heading to 14,500 homes and businesses including Aston, Kelsall, Mobberley and Prestbury, with 2100 being around Prestbury.

Full fibre broadband is heading to a further eight communities in Cheshire, as part of a huge broadband upgrade by Openreach.

More than 14,500 people living and working in Aston, Comberbach, Kelsall, Kingsley, Lower Peover, Mobberley, Poynton and Prestbury are next in line for full fibre.

Do you work from home in Prestbury? There is good news.

They join more than 322,000 homes and businesses across the county who already have access to the UK's most reliable broadband technology, thanks to Openreach's work. Across the UK, the company has published updated plans to build full fibre broadband to a record 517 more locations – covering a further 2.71 million homes and businesses.

Robert Thorburn, Openreach regional director for the North, said: "This is a huge infrastructure success story across Cheshire. No company is building faster or further in Europe, that we're aware of.

"We won't be stopping either. We plan to build even further across the county, to more towns, villages and our most rural communities.

"And our engineers are doing this at a rapid pace - despite this being a hugely complex engineering project.

"Our fibre checker has the latest information about our work in your area. It's also worth noting that upgrades aren't automatic. Once full fibre is available where you live, you'll need to place an order to get connected and we'll do the rest!

"Openreach's network offers the widest choice of providers such as BT, Sky, TalkTalk, Vodafone and Zen – which means people have lots of choice and can get a great deal."

The work is all part of Openreach's £15 billion project to upgrade the UK's broadband infrastructure - making gigabit-capable technology available to 25 million homes and businesses by the end of 2026, including 6.2 million in harder to reach more remote and rural areas.

More than 4.7 million homes and businesses across the UK have already upgraded to Full Fibre and demand continues to flow, with more than 50,000 orders being placed each week. Openreach has also refreshed its online map and postcode checker to give a clearer, regularly updated view of its plans and progress between now and 2026.

The map now shows the levels of current and future expected full fibre coverage as of today, taking data from all of its build programmes, whilst the postcode checker continues to offer the most personalised view of the connectivity available to an individual home or business.

Further updates will be provided as any additional locations are added in future.

Macclesfield Nub News contacted Openreach for the completion of the Prestbury project, but this is unable to be done until the surveys are complete.

However, people can register their interest on the website and get email updates on the build once things are underway.
