Latest update from OFNL

Update (06 Dec 2024 18:20hrs) Engineers completed excavation work earlier this afternoon and fibre engineers performed remedial work on the damaged fibres.

A small number of customers remain without service.

Further fibre optic repairs are required but are being hampered by restricted access to the site and weather conditions.

It is likely the further repairs will not commence until the morning of Monday 9/12/24. Further updates will be made as soon as possible or if the situation changes. We apologise again for the inconvenience caused and thank you for your patience.
