BT one of the largest broadband service provider has plans to allow its competitors to use its underground tunnel network to run high-speed broadband. Such action would enable the competitors to lay their optical fibre cables without the expense of digging up pavements and thereby save the expenses.
Open access to all ducts might help BT and others to extend their coverage. BT is spending around 1.5 billion pounds on an optical fibre network which will be operational by 2012 Olympics games and will enhance the download speeds 10-fold. The company plans to recover some of its investment expenses by signing wholesale deals with its rivals.
Also, last month Bt has planned an aggressive pricing strategy for superfast broadband products which will challenge Virgin Media, its main competitor in the domain.
All such moves by BT are the efforts to boost its broadband market share, which is markedly lower than many of Europe's former fixed line phone monopolies.
