Overview of Broadband Projects

The creation of fiber optic networks is fundamentally a task of the market. In areas where economic development is not possible for network operators, the federal government and the state jointly promote the expansion. For this purpose, the Federal Government launched the Federal Broadband Development Programme in 2015. The country participates pro rata in the financing (co-financing). The data set contains an overview of the funding projects co-financed by the State of North Rhine-Westphalia, which were finally approved by the Federal Government. The overview shows the area projects. There are other data sets for commercial areas as well as for schools and hospitals. The creation of fiber optic networks is fundamentally a task of the market.
