Are You On The Updated NBN Maps?


NBN Co has updated 40 of its maps, providing a clearer indication of when National Broadband Network (NBN) services will be available to around 165,000 homes. If you live in one of those areas, it’s worth checking to see if you’re one of the lucky ones who will be able to sign up for an NBN service in a year or so.

You’ve always been able to look up projected launch dates for the NBN via an interactive map, but the newly-updated data will give people in the relevant cities and suburbs a clearer indication. These are the areas where maps have been updated this week:

The NBN is planned as a long-term project, and construction won’t be completed for another nine years. Anyone want to move to Victor Harbor?
