British Telecom is the Tier 1 Communications Sponsor of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Part of their sponsorship contract involves the installation of high capacity 21st Century network connectivity to the 2012 sailing event venue, the Weymouth and Portland National Sailing Academy. This high band-width fibre optic connection will support data, voice, media and mobile communication during Games time.
This activity provides a unique opportunity to fast-track high quality broadband provision across Dorset – however to do this your feedback is needed.
Your support is critical, BT and other communication providers, will require a strong business case of the potential on-line demand and usage from the private sector, public sector and resident community in order to further invest in our digital infrastructure. We simply need to generate a substantial demand for hi speed connectivity in order to influence BT and others to install and roll out these broadband services across Dorset.
We need your support – simply complete the on-line Connectivity Survey by visiting the Team Dorset website.
