Aberdeen City Council is set to install a fibre network across the city to provide enhanced digital services to residents, businesses and visitors.
Having joined the Scottish Wide Area Network (SWAN) in September 2015, the council will now introduce fibre infrastructure to the majority of its sites over the next year to enable it to meet its ambitious digital city plans.
The network, managed by Capita IT Enterprise Services, will link the council’s 188 educational and corporate establishments together.
Aberdeen City Council joins more than 50 other Scottish public sector organisations that are benefiting from shared infrastructure and services, which is lowering costs and improving connectivity across the whole public sector in Scotland in line with the McLelland report.
Cllr Willie Young, convener of Finance, Policy and Resources, Aberdeen City Council, said: “We have ambitions to become a truly digital city, providing high quality services to local residents and reinforcing the city as an attractive location for business.
“Being part of SWAN has led to a greater level of collaboration and sharing across the public sector – Aberdeen is benefiting from that both functionally and financially. In bringing high-speed connectivity to the city centre, we are making a real statement to the global business community in terms of stimulating and attracting new investment into the city.”
