Re: ‘Put it underground!’ October 28 story.

Can you put one down my street Chorus? Internet speed in Elgin is crap.

A “first world problem” if ever there was one. It’s not blocking any views at all — it’s 5cm wide for goodness sake, I can still see plenty of ocean in that picture. What a fuss over very little. I’d bet money that the same people would complain about the weeks of roadworks caused by installing it underground.

I agree with the Moana Street residents that what Chorus has done by putting the broadband cables across their seaview is shocking and it would be better suited underground, at least for the residents in this area.
