Hi all, a few days ago I saw yellow paint arrows on either side of BT cover in the pavement by house.
Could this be that BT are at long last bringing full fibre to the road/houses? I am hoping that is the reason!!!
City fibre dug up street last year and full fibre is now available on Vodafone and other suppliers (with phone as well)...
Better devil I know after decades with BT I am hoping BT will bring full fibre soon.
Hoping someone on here knows what the markings are!!!
We have copper at the moment and wifi keeps dropping and speeds fluctuating.
I know BT isn't like sky who guarantee 43 Mbps WIFI .... But constant disconnects is awful....
We are close to a river and often area is waterlogged
Thanks in advance
Those markings are usually made when someone needs to do work on the pavement or road, and there is no standard to them - so long as those doing the work understand the meaning. In this case, they probably just indicate the route any cabling into box the takes. It's not specific enough to say what is happening (if anything), often you'll get more notice either posted on lamp posts or through your letterbox.
Openreach use Grey Paint to make up any Digs.
Yellow is normally used for Gas so it’s most likely been done to notify someone whose about to Dig the location of a Gas Pipe.
Also why would Openreach spray a line next to a Joint Box where a Fibre Cable is about to go into? Would it not be blatantly obvious to Openreach Engineers and or their Contractors that the Cable would go into a BT Joint Box?!?!
You could try searching here for scheduled works.
