BISHOPS Castle and Bromfield are among two areas to receive better broadband.
Thirteen more exchange areas will get high-speed fibre broadband before the end of next year as part of the multi-million pound Connecting Shropshire programme.
The partnership between Shropshire Council, BT and Broadband Delivery UK, aims to make the sophisticated technology available to around 7,500 homes and businesses in areas that include Bishops Castle and Bromfield.
An new online map and line checker on the Connecting Shropshire website, designed to make it easier for people to find out about the availability of fibre broadband in their area has been launched and can be accessed by logging onto: http://connectingshropshire.co.uk/when-and-where/
The map allows local people to get up-to-date information about the status of their exchange area within the programme.
The line checker enables people to enter their postcode or telephone number to find out their exchange area, whether or not fibre broadband is available and estimated dates when it will be available to them.
