BT still own the ducting. VM will build from scratch.

The other areas will indeed be infill.

Barnet sounds like it's going to be a hybrid. Some treated as 'new build' and built as FTTP, other bits in-fill. Barnet has relatively low cable coverage, barely 43%, so there's a lot of building to do there.

Somewhere like Croydon is definitely infill; Croydon, the borough, is 87% cabled right now.
