The map on their website is quite interesting - shows individual address points which are affected: https://www.chorus.co.nz/copper-withdrawal

 

Presumably there's some kind of multi-criteria decision making behind this e.g. UFB uptake, condition of cables/frequency of faults, and non-Chorus UFB networks. 

 

 

One of the deciding factors is that some of the individual address points you are seeing have been identified as already having an ONT onsite.

 

For example, we have a number of homeowners/occupants who were door-knocked by Chorus, agreed to have an ONT installed at no cost, but then never connected it up and have just continued using copper services. It's my understanding that in that particular situation, where multiple contacts have been made asking them to move to fibre (and these have been unsuccessful), Chorus is waiting until the ONT has been there 12 months and is then issuing notice of intention to switch off their copper.

 

Hi do you know if the map will be updated to show Northland (Northpower UFB)?

Thanks
