A major Wiltshire town is to become the first in the UK to offer free public wireless internet access to its entire population, it was claimed.

The plan is to  to have blanket “Wi-Fi mesh” coverage for all 186,000 citizens  by April 2010.

BBC news reported,

If successful, there is an intention of working on similar roll-outs of the technology in other towns and cities across the UK.

Swindon Borough Council leader Rod Bluh said: “This is a truly ground-breaking partnership which will have real benefits for everyone living in Swindon.

“We’re doing it, we’ve done it, and we’re the first to do it.”

The service will also have the potential to provide free internet phone-calls and remote medical consultations.
