Part R relates to the physical infrastructure and network connection required to support high-speed electronic communications in applicable new dwellings.

What is a Connectivity Plan?

It is a document setting out the proposed gigabit-ready infrastructure and public network connection for the development.

What are RA1 and RA2?

RA1 concerns gigabit-ready physical infrastructure. RA2 concerns the provision of a gigabit-capable network connection.

Which projects require a Connectivity Plan?

The requirements primarily apply to new dwellings and may also apply in certain material-change-of-use situations.

Does Part R apply to flats?

Yes. Applicable new flats are included, and communal infrastructure may be required within multi-dwelling buildings.

Do I need information from a network provider?

Supporting confirmation, quotations or connection details from a suitable network operator may be required.

What happens if a gigabit connection is too expensive?

The Part R cost-cap procedure may apply, subject to suitable evidence and Building Control review.

Can you help if Building Control has requested a plan?

Yes. Send us the request, drawings and provider information so we can review and prepare the required documentation.

What information is needed for a quotation?

Provide the development address, dwelling numbers, site plan, Building Control correspondence and any network-provider information.

The Manchester development market

Greater Manchester has one of the UK's most active apartment markets, from city-centre towers to mill conversions in Salford, Stockport and Oldham, alongside new housing on the edges of the conurbation. Parts of central Manchester are high-risk locations for overheating under Part O, which affects window design on many schemes.
