PARTS of Barnsley could experience faster broadband by the end of this year as part of the Superfast South Yorkshire project.
The £22m project was announced last year and will ensure high speed broadband coverage for about 98 per cent of homes across the borough.
It is being jointly funded by the government, BT and Barnsley, Rotherham, Doncaster and Sheffield Councils. Early indications show Cudworth and Grimethorpe, Ardsley, Dodworth and Hoyle Mill could see completion by the end of this year.

We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
