‘Not spot’ Teesside Homes and Businesses get ITS Superfast Broadband
ITS, a leading provider of ultrafast internet connectivity and the Wilton Centre, a leading business and science park, have launched an all new superfast network to help overcome the broadband woes of a number of overlooked communities in Teesside.
The majority of homes and businesses in the area are having to make do with slow, unreliable broadband services delivered over old telephone wires. This new network uses fibre and wireless technology to deliver reliable, competitively priced superfast broadband packages starting from £30 per month.
“ITS has been our connectivity and IT services provider for 15 years, so we have a lot of faith in their technical abilities. We saw a great opportunity to deepen our partnership by working together to develop this new network and have provided the site for the equipment. We understand only too well how digital connectivity underpins innovation and plays a vital role in all aspects of our lives.”
Steve Duffield, Site Director, the Wilton Centre
“Having been active in the Teesside area for a number of years, we have seen that broadband speeds, access to high speed connectivity, and reliability can be a postcode lottery creating connectivity blackspots. Partnering with the Wilton Centre, we have provided an alternative network that offers choice and competitively priced services that do not compromise on speed or quality of service.”
David Cullen, Director Strategy and Compliance at ITS
“Fast, reliable broadband is no longer regarded as something you can live without. People choose to buy a house based on how good the internet connection is, and businesses are choosing whether or not to invest in the Tees Valley based on connectivity.
“If we are going to support our innovators, job creators, entrepreneurs and risk-takers then we need to make sure they have access to high speed, reliable internet connections no matter where they are in the Tees Valley.
“I’m very pleased to see that ITS and the Wilton Centre are addressing the scourge of ‘not spots’ in the region by deploying their innovative technology. I look forward to seeing the number of households and businesses suffering from poor internet connections in the Tees Valley reduced.”
Ben Houchen, Mayor of the Tees Valley
