Fixed broadband and very high-speed networks: a first assessment
In 2013, the State committed to cover the entire territory in ten years under the “Plan France très haut débit” to reach in 2022 100% of the 35 million homes and premises for professional use, 80% of which are fibre optics up to the customer. For this first review, the Court and the regional audit chambers examined 47 territorial projects covering half the population and one third of the territory. Financial jurisdictions therefore call for updated targets, better consideration of alternative fibre-to-the-subscriber technologies, in order to build a less costly “technology mix”, and to integrate a minimum broadband target for all. In general, the Plan focused on the construction of fixed infrastructures common to all audiences, without thinking about uses, whereas these are only one facet of digital transformation.
