Norwich turns on UK’s largest wi-fi network

Steve Woods National IT News 2 Comments »

The people of Norwich should by now be enjoying the pleasures of free wi-fi today thanks to a project backed by Norfolk County Council and the East of England Development Agency.

The project, costing £1.1 mn., covers 30 square kilometres embracing most of Norwich city centre, outlying business parks, the hospital and the University of East Anglia.

It is anticipated that the service will be extended to a further 20 rural areas in Norfolk later this year.
