With 53,596 premises, Taunton and Wellington sits in England. Full-fibre reaches 79.2% of them, broadly in line with national trends for a UK seat, while gigabit-capable coverage (which also counts upgraded DOCSIS 3.1 cable) stands at 79.2%. Superfast (30 Mbit/s or more) covers 95.5% and ultrafast (300 Mbit/s or more) reaches 80.1%.
On connectivity for all households, Taunton and Wellington has all but eliminated its USO gap, under 1% of premises are stuck below the 10 Mbit/s baseline. Future Connected Nations releases may set a higher bar for "ultrafast" as gigabit coverage keeps expanding.
Where these figures come from
Figures are drawn from Ofcom's Connected Nations 2025 report (July 2025, r01), which aggregates postcode-sector data to constituency level. They represent coverage availability from at least one network operator, not the proportion of households that have subscribed to a given speed tier, nor the typical or guaranteed speeds that customers actually receive. Nearby constituencies in England with comparable full-fibre coverage are listed below.
