More RFS delays

Posted: Monday 19th April 2004 by Sam
Following the recent postponement of Rhu's RFS date the day before it was due to be enabled, a further four exchanges have had their dates moved back:

ExchangeOld dateNew dateReason
Abbots Bromley21/04/200425/08/2004New CJ cable required
Glenfarg21/04/200426/05/2004Delay to SDH ring provision
Kimbolton02/06/200429/09/2004New CJ cable and duct required
Stelling Minnis02/06/200422/12/2004Cable delay, will not be ready until December

Given BT's good track record with meeting its own RFS date targets, 5 announcements of delayed RFS dates in one week does not look good. The BT campaign team will apparently be having "urgent discussions with the planning teams to assess the situation and the impact (if any) on future dates."

More on this as we hear about it.
