For altnet coverage in the Bristol area, CityFibre has been active in Bristol and its network is accessible through providers such as Vodafone and Zen. Openreach remains the dominant infrastructure provider across most residential streets in Bishopsworth, with a range of ISPs selling over it including BT, Sky, EE, Plusnet and Vodafone.
One wider change worth noting: Openreach's analogue phone network (PSTN) is being switched off in January 2027. If you or someone in your household still uses a traditional landline phone, you will need to move to a digital voice service before then. Most ISPs are handling this automatically for customers who upgrade to full fibre, but it is worth confirming with your provider if you are unsure.
