    Known as the GEN097/22 Complex Fault to Fibre Trial

    it's at https://www.openreach.co.uk/cpportal/updates/briefings/general-briefings/gen09722

    "As we transition from a copper based network to a full fibre network Openreach is looking at opportunities to migrate lines to this network where it is to everyone’s benefit (Reactive and Proactive migrations).

    One of the most time-consuming copper repairs are those which require ‘2nd Stage’ work (excavations to get to cables for example). Openreach is proposing a trial to understand the potential benefits of installing FTTP in place of repairing the copper where an Openreach engineer attends a copper repair and identifies that 2nd stage work is required to repair the copper service."

    Makes a lot of sense: eg you get a DUG with rodent issues, gonna be trenching anyways may as well just lay the optical drop there and then.
