The Telecoms Access Review in 60 seconds: 💡 What CEOs & CTOs need to know... The long-awaited Telecoms Access Review is here. Ofcom has laid out how broadband and telecoms networks will be regulated from 2026 to 2031, shaping the future of fibre rollouts and competition in the UK. The good news: ✅ Openreach must continue allowing Altnets access to its ducts & poles. ✅ Market-driven pricing expands to 90% of the UK, meaning more flexibility for Altnets. ✅ Ofcom is blocking aggressive pricing tactics that could squeeze smaller providers. The challenges: ⚠️ Customer take-up remains slow – only 35% of homes with full fibre use it. ⚠️ The market is highly fragmented – smaller Altnets could face pressure to merge. ⚠️ New regulatory hurdles could slow business decisions for both Openreach and Altnets. What does this mean for you? If you’re scaling a fibre network, this could shape your investment strategy and pricing models for years to come.
