Story: NTL targets broadband blackspot with wireless

I wish NTL would look into a wireless broadband network for the New Wardon Villages area of Worcester City. This area has 6000 houses only 9 years old and even though the exchange is enabled, the line length is too long, even with the extended reach (must be some line length). BT say it's just tough and there is nothing they can do. With us being in the 3% of people in this category they are not going to be in a hurry.
There is a local wi-fi system being set up that says it will eventually bring broadband to this area, however they are intending to charge £24 for a 256/128 service and £37 for a 512/256 service - which is expensive by today's standards.

NTL don't seem to want the business of only 6000 houses so it seems we will just have to wait for this expensive service to materialise
