Fiber to Gävleborg 2

Goal The overall goal of the project is to increase the expansion of broadband and high-speed networks to small and medium-sized enterprises in sparsely populated areas where the market does not have any interest in commercial expansion. In this project, which is the second of several, fiber expansion will take place to 17 stretches in Bollnäs comprising about 99 km, 20 stretches in Gävle comprising about 35 km, 4 stretches in Hofors comprising about 6.3 km, 5 stretches in Hudiksvall comprising about 34.4 km, 2 stretches in Nordanstig comprising about 12.7 km, 2 stretches in Ockelbo comprising about 4.2 km, 11 stretches in Ovanåker comprising about 46.4 km, 10 stretches in Sandviken, 51,7 km. The project has estimated that 1 471 companies will have the opportunity to access broadband of at least 100 Mbit/s when the project’s expansion is complete.
