Ofcom has published guidelines for the installation of super-fast broadband
to new homes.
The industry regulator pointed to experiences in Germany which suggest that a
fast broadband infrastructure can add up to seven per cent to the price of a new
home.
Ofcom chief executive Ed Richards said: "Super-fast broadband is ripe for
deployment in new build areas. We need to take advantage of this and encourage
investment in networks while promoting competition.
"This will allow consumers to benefit from all the advantages of super-fast
access speeds, competitive provision and choice."
Ofcom is considering running fibre optic lines through sewers or power lines
to get to the 'last mile' to the home.
