Our implementation programme for the Gauteng Broadband Network is on track and to date we have a 1500 km network of fibre linking 8 Core Nodes across the province. We have 1181 sites connected to the network across the province covering the 5 developmental corridors 
The broadband network is a step towards bridging the digital divide and greater accessibility to government services. It will allow the provincial government to implement its smart provincial initiatives and facilitate ancillary projects such as e-learning, e-government and e-health, amongst others.​
