The Parkview Residents' Association (PRA) has selected Dark Fibre Africa (DFA) as its partner to roll out fibre-to-the-home infrastructure in Parkview and Greenside East, in Johannesburg.
The PRA says deal will see the rollout of "future-proof" fibre, delivering Internet connections of "up to 1Gbps to residents and businesses in the area".
"We are delighted that DFA will be providing Parkview residents a high-quality fibre-to-the-home network in Parkview and that leading ISPs will be offering Internet services on an open access network, enabling real choice and competition in the suburb," says Indra de Lanerolle, chairperson of ConnectParkview.
"We are looking forward to working with them to make Parkview a connected suburb for all - providing great community services to schools and public spaces in Parkview."
The PRA dubbed the initiative "one of the most important upgrades of the infrastructure in Parkview, for many years".
"Planning on the network will commence immediately, with the aim to complete the fibre installations within four months."
