BT to offer rivals access to its high-speed broadband

[kizzy21_uk]

BT is to offer its rivals access to its high-speed broadband network for a nominal fee, according to reports.

The telecoms carrier BT plans to allow rival broadband suppliers to use its underground tunnel network to run high-speed broadband, reports suggest.

This would involve the company providing open access to its ducts in a move to help extend high-speed broadband coverage across Britain. The company hopes to recoup some of its investment costs by signing wholesale deals with its competitors.

Is this a wise move or will BT regret such a risky venture?
