CityWest Fiber Optic Installation Will Not Use Outdoor Wireless Transmitters

infrastructure · Denman and Hornby Islands

CityWest confirmed that their fiber optic internet installations on Denman and Hornby Islands will not include outdoor wireless transmitters. Instead, fiber-optic connections will be run directly to homes or businesses, with possible extra charges for driveways exceeding 80 meters.

This is the archive, not the newspaper. Between 2018 and 2026 this site compiled these items automatically from public community sources — chiefly The Islands Grapevine, regional news feeds and community groups. They were not written by a reporter and were not held to the standards this publication now applies. The archive is kept because it is a useful dated record of what happened on Denman, and it is labelled because pretending otherwise would be the first thing we would tell you not to trust. Current reporting is at The Denman Firestarter.
