Standon Rock RFS delayed

Posted: Sunday 30th May 2004 by Sam
Standon Rock in Staffordshire has become the latest exchange to have it's RFS date delayed.

The exchange was due to go live on June 2nd (Wednesday), but a blockage in some of the ducting has delayed the fibre-optic cable installation. A team of engineers is assessing the problem this weekend. The new RFS date will not be known until the engineers have reported their findings. Let's just hope it's not too far away.

The official campaign site for Standon Rock, carrying the latest news on the situation, can be found here.

Update (11pm): It now appears that Tideswell have also had their RFS date delayed. New dates for both Standon Rock and Tideswell will be issued by Friday June 4th.
