NBN makes a SerCo choices'

NBN Co has named the contractors it has selected to construct the passive optical fibre for the first five release sites of the Federal Government's national broadband network.

Three of the selected organisations are Silcar for Armidale in NSW; Transfield Services for Minnamurra and Kiama Downs in NSW, and SA power distribution
company ETSA Utilities for Willunga.

Ergon Energy will construct the passive optical fibre network in Townsville, and at the fifth site, Brunswick in Victoria, NBN Co is discussing with Telstra the use of the telco's existing infrastructure,explained Mike Quigley, CEO of NBN Co.

"The selection of a mix of construction contractors and power utilities will further allow NBN Co to evaluate the suitability of different contractor and
construction models," Quigley added.
