Suncoast Broadband is a community partnership project initiated to
obtain better broadband services on the Sunshine Coast. The project began in August 2005 and is gaining enormous support across
the region. Residents and councils from across the three shires:
Caloundra, Maroochy and Noosa are rallying together to ensure cheaper,
faster and more flexible broadband is available to every resident on
the Coast.
The Suncoast Broadband project is co-funded by the three Councils
(Maroochy, Noosa & Caloundra) through Sunshine Coast Regional
Organisation of Councils (SunROC) in partnership with State and Federal
Governments. The project has been designed to address the digital
divide by harnessing support for broadband and seeking out new
suppliers of broadband technology on the Coast.
The project concluded in July 2006 with the appointment of Preffered Suppliers.
