Up to 510,000 homes and businesses are set to benefit across the UK, with Cornwall down as one of eight areas announced as the first in line for procurement alongside Cambridgeshire, Cumbria, Dorset, Durham, Essex, Northumberland, South Tyneside and Tees Valley. This will rise to a million in June. Project Gigabit will invest a record £5 billion to incentivise network providers to build to areas deemed "commercially unviable". Areas with the largest proportion of premises identified as hard-to-reach or connected to slow speeds will be first in line for support. The successful Gigabit Broadband Voucher scheme is also being extended with a £210 million cash injection to give people in rural areas immediate financial help to get gigabit speeds.
