The duct-laying work is the next step in bringing superfast internet to the Granite City, through an initiative that has the backing of the council, and is being distributed by mobile phone giant Vodafone, the commercial partner for the project. Two roads in Aberdeen ’s city centre are scheduled to close in early 2019 to allow work to be carried out on superfast service provision . The duct - laying work , to be conducted by CityFibre , will lead to speeds increasing by as much as 1,000 mph . From 28 January until 1 February , the work will affect Aberdeen ’s Market Lane , to be followed by work on Exchange Lane from 3 February until 7 February . The package , dubbed Orange , is being distributed by Vodafone , with residents of Northfield and Kincorth offered the first chance to get it .
