Graeme Hails Broadband Progress
565 new gigabit-speed broadband connections in Angus last year
The Scottish Government has surpassed its commitment to deliver gigabit-capable broadband connections to 20,000 homes and businesses in 2024-25, by delivering 27,134 new connections last year – including 565 in Angus Council.
The new connections come as part of the Scottish Government’s Reaching 100% (R100) programme, which aims to ensure every home and business in Scotland has access to extremely fast gigabit-capable broadband.
Graeme has hailed the continued rollout of the scheme in Angus Council.
I welcome the 565 new connections for gigabit-capable broadband in Angus Council- part of over 27,000 new connections established across Scotland last year – a target exceeding number.

With many people still working from home, these new connections enable people to work, buy and sell online, supporting the local economy and use the internet for leisure as well.
This progress is welcome, but there’s still more to do – which is why the R100 programme will continue to deliver new connections until 2028.
