SIRO, the 100% fibre broadband network operator, has announced that its network is now live in Claremorris. To date, 868 homes and businesses in the town have been passed by the SIRO network, with a further 630 premises expected to go live in 2025 – a total of 1,500 premises overall.
Areas in Claremorris that will have access to the SIRO network include, but are not limited to Cluain Aoibhinn, Claremount Manor, Elmwood, Grattan Crescent, Elm Park, Ard Rua, Cnoc Bothar, Lisnaboley Lane, Beechpark, Grattan Park, Clareville and Springdale.
The rollout in Claremorris is part of SIRO’s wider investment in Mayo, where close to 8,800 premises are already passed by the SIRO network. With the completion of the Claremorris build, the number of premises passed in the county will rise to over 9,000. SIRO’s network is available in towns including Ballina, Westport, and Castlebar.
SIRO’s national network has reached more than 660,000 premises across 143 towns and cities, as part of its €1 billion investment. The company is on track to pass over 700,000 premises by 2026, helping to future-proof connectivity in communities right across Ireland.
SIRO’s full fibre broadband network will provide residents and businesses in Claremorris with fast and future-proofed connectivity, enabling everything from seamless remote working or video streaming to supporting local enterprises in their digital growth. SIRO’s full fibre network currently provides speeds of up to 2 Gigabits per second for homes and 10 Gigabits per second for businesses.
The expansion comes at a crucial time, as Ireland moves closer to switching off the existing outdated copper telecoms network. SIRO’s 100% fibre broadband provides a future-proof solution, ensuring reliable connectivity for households and businesses as traditional copper-based services are phased out.
Speaking on the announcement, John Keaney, SIRO Chief Executive Officer, said:
“We are delighted to bring SIRO’s 100% fibre broadband to Claremorris, connecting hundreds of homes and businesses to reliable gigabit connectivity. High-quality broadband is now essential for modern living, supporting remote working, online learning, streaming, and powering local businesses. With our network expansion in Mayo continuing, we are committed to ensuring Claremorris can now access world-class connectivity.”
