Ofcom extends BT Openreach regulation for five years to boost full-fibre rollout and competition.
Ofcom has extended regulation of BT Openreach’s network for five years, expanding price caps to speeds up to 80 Mbps to boost competition and accelerate full-fibre rollout.
Since 2021, full-fibre access has grown from under 25% to nearly 80% of UK premises, with 86% of homes now having at least two provider options.
Higher-speed services remain unregulated to encourage investment.
The regulator maintains oversight due to Openreach’s ongoing market power, enforcing fair access to infrastructure and stricter service standards in less competitive areas.
The goal is to reach 96% coverage by 2031, with a focus on increasing take-up and supporting digital growth.
