More RFS delays
Following the recent postponement of Rhu’s RFS date the day before it was due to be enabled, a further four exchanges have had their dates moved back:
| Exchange | Old date | New date | Reason |
| Abbots Bromley | 21/04/2004 | 25/08/2004 | New CJ cable required |
| Glenfarg | 21/04/2004 | 26/05/2004 | Delay to SDH ring provision |
| Kimbolton | 02/06/2004 | 29/09/2004 | New CJ cable and duct required |
| Stelling Minnis | 02/06/2004 | 22/12/2004 | Cable delay, will not be ready until December |
Given BT’s good track record with meeting its own RFS date targets, 5 announcements of delayed RFS dates in one week does not look good. The BT campaign team will apparently be having “urgent discussions with the planning teams to assess the situation and the impact (if any) on future dates.”
More on this as we hear about it.
