Telecoms and BT Openreach
(Part R Compliance)
Future-proofing your site for fibre and gigabit broadband requirements.
End-to-End Telecoms Planning for Connected Developments
In today’s digital-first environment, telecoms infrastructure is a non-negotiable part of any development. With new legislation such as Part R of the Building Regulations now requiring developers to ensure properties are gigabit-ready, early-stage planning is essential. Utility Source manages the full telecoms strategy from application to infrastructure installation—helping you meet legal obligations and avoid the months-long delays commonly experienced with BT Openreach and other network providers.
We work closely with BT Openreach and alternative network operators (Altnets) to ensure your site is correctly registered, documented, and built to meet fibre-ready standards. By integrating telecoms planning into your utility trenching and construction programme, we help keep your build moving and ensure properties are ready for broadband from day one.
What is Included in Telecoms Services?
We take care of the entire telecoms process, starting with registering your development with BT Openreach and securing all necessary documentation. Our team ensures your design meets compliance with Part R, including guidance on internal and external cabling routes, ducting, and access points.
We also plan the layout of fibre-ready infrastructure, coordinate across multiple telecom providers where necessary, and make sure trenching requirements are aligned with your other utilities to reduce disruption and unnecessary work.
With our support, your project will be compliant, future-ready, and connected on time.
