The core network goes to Chester as far as I know. The original build progressed relatively far in Chester itself, as I say there's plenty of visible NYNEX ducting in the city centre.

As mentioned earlier they would be best doing Chester first and then adding Wrexham on from there.

I still don't understand what the engineers do in the hubsites though. I see dozens going in and out of the Bromborough one. So if they served Wrexham remotely from there you'd have engineers driving long distances constantly. Why do they need to go to the hubsites so often?
