What the petition asks
I have been talking with local residents, business owners and holiday makers over the past 4 years about the BT network in Dawlish Warren that is unfit for purpose.
The internet is so slow in Dawlish Warren but neighbouring Dawlish has ultra fast fibre.
The internet is so slow in Dawlish Warren but neighbouring Dawlish has ultra fast fibre.
As the Dawlish Chamber of Trade and Commerce Chairman, I constantly hear if anything is going to be done about the abysmal speed that BT seem to think is acceptable.
I also run a business running live webcams along the South Devon coast. I run my cameras in Dawlish at 5000 kbps and can barely run the in Dawlish Warren at 100 kbps.
This has been a topic of frustration for many years in Dawlish Warren while every other area surrounding seems to be on super fast fibre.

Why it was rejected
