Better broadband is on the way to the Fylde Coast as a new subsea cable connects Blackpool to the North Atlantic Loop. New York – Dublin – Isle of Man – BLACKPOOL – Newcastle – Denmark!

The North Atlantic Loop is made up of several undersea fibre cables connecting the UK to the US and Northern Europe.

The much-anticipated connection to a subsea, fibre optic, Irish Sea cable network will have the capability to deliver some of the world’s fastest, most resilient internet speeds. It secures Blackpool’s status as a key international route linking the UK to the rest of the world.

Just after 3pm, the crew of a ‘rear end barge’ landed a subsea fibre optical cable onto the beach. The cable connects Blackpool via an existing ducting network laid under the sand dunes taking it to a dedicated cable landing station at Blackpool Airport Enterprise Zone.
