Cityfiber only across the street

Hi folks,
cityfiber (Morrisons telecom services to be precise, not the supermarket chain) spent a while digging up my quiet little road, installing fiber on the other side of the street only. Even numbers get it, odds don’t. The street has two ends, so not a cul-de-sac, & the initial response I got from CF was that the street narrows at one point.

Any suggestions or advice on prodding them to complete the job would be much appreciated. There are approximately 70 households without this service in the street now. Options are Virgin or 8mbps DSL.
thanks!
thanks!

i cannot understand why CityFibre is being allowed to continue, one box for four properties on my side of the road but instalation would mean digging up three private driveways and owners have quite rightly refused.
From talking to others it appears to be a widespread issue hence coomment above
What is particularly annoying is that they contine to cause disruption by digging up local roads without any apparent consequence.0 -
The altnet only dug up one side of my street too. We asked the installers and apparently they're going to use the BT poles and bring fibre overhead to the other side of the street.Yours might be similar?N. Hampshire, he/him.
