I'm not sure if she is in the same area, but they did start upgrading some parts of Liecester in the same way they are with London, however, if I remember correctly it has been put on hold for various reasons. Cables/fibers do need replacing in some areas (planning permission etc can take a long time to get), but not all. Another reason IMPO was that when the uprgrades were been done, it was causing more problems than it fixed as in outages etc.
