Work on the Letterkenny-Bridgend portion of the new co-axial cable has been completed. It is expected that work on the Bridgend-Derry section, for which the Northern Ireland Region of British Telecom is responsible, will be completed by mid-1982. The cable will then be available to carry traffic between Letterkenny and Derry and intermediate points on that route.
