No specific Openreach expansion announcements for Ashby Ivanhoe or North West Leicestershire were found in recent trade coverage at the time of writing. The absence of news is, in this case, a good sign: the town is not on a waiting list for infrastructure improvements because the full fibre build is already in place.
The primary network provider in this area is Openreach, whose FTTP infrastructure is open to dozens of retail ISPs including BT, Sky, EE, Vodafone, Plusnet, and a growing number of smaller providers. Altnets with footprints in the East Midlands, such as CityFibre-backed providers, may also serve parts of the town: check availability by postcode to confirm which networks are active at your specific address.
One change that will affect every household in Ashby Ivanhoe is the PSTN copper switch-off, which Openreach has confirmed will complete in January 2027. If you still use a traditional landline phone, you will need to move to a digital voice service before then. Anyone on a full fibre package will need a battery backup unit to maintain phone service during a power cut.
