  • Over 19,000 homes in Wokingham and surrounding areas now have access to the UK’s finest full fibre network, approximately 82% of the town’s properties.
  • With the primary-build now completed, CityFibre will continue to densify and connect even more homes and businesses wherever possible.

5 June, 2025: CityFibre, the UK’s largest independent full fibre network, has completed the primary-build of its full fibre network in Wokingham. The new network is now 'ready for service’ to over 19,000 homes, around 82% of Wokingham’s homes and most businesses. Wokingham is the latest town in CityFibre’s nationwide rollout, making it one of the best-connected locations in the country.

Construction began on the £15m project in 2022 and CityFibre has since laid over 1,211km of dense full fibre infrastructure across the town. While the primary-build is now complete, CityFibre will continue to explore opportunities to connect more homes and businesses, including flats, new-build homes, business parks and homes on private roads.

Residents in Wokingham can enjoy affordable, gigabit-capable and reliable full fibre broadband from a range internet service providers (ISPs) including Vodafone, TalkTalk, Cuckoo, Zen and others. All homes passed by the network can schedule a full fibre installation within five working days of placing an order.

Neil Madle, Partnership Manager at CityFibre, said: “Our completed rollout in Wokingham represents an exciting leap forward for digital connectivity across the town. With the UK's top-tier digital infrastructure now in place, residents, businesses, and public institutions will benefit for generations to come.

“Wokingham is a town full of opportunity and ambition, making it a key project for us. Full fibre is essential to the long-term growth of the UK market, and we look forward to building on our success, driving the town's future economic development.”
