The NBN roll-out is continuing across Brimbank.
Work is under way to connect parts of Sunshine North, Keilor and Derrimut to the network.
An NBN spokesperson said work is expected to be completed by early 2020.
“Currently more than 106,000 homes and businesses across Brimbank are able to connect to the NBN network,” she said.
“Construction is currently under way to connect parts of Sunshine North, Keilor and Derrimut.
“It’s expected these premises will be able to connect to the NBN network early next year.”
The spokesperson said additional work may be required for some homes.
“It’s important to remember that each premises is unique, with a small number of premises that will require additional works from an engineering perspective before they will be ready to connect to the new network,” she said.
“It is not unusual for the majority of an area to become NBN ready, while works are being carried out to those remaining premises. This means access is not held back for those areas where construction is complete.”
Residents and businesses in St Albans, Sunshine and Sunshine West were progressively added to the NBN between 2016 and August of this year.
Albion went live in September 2018.
