Eligible premises ‘Go List’
NEW FORMAT FOR ELIGIBLE PREMISES ‘GO LIST’
As part of the re-launch of the Gigabit Broadband Voucher Scheme (GBVS), the format of the ‘Go List’ now shows eligible premises at UPRN level. The ‘Go List’ provides an indication of eligibility under the new version of the terms and conditions (v8.0) and applies to for all new projects submitted from 5th December 2022 onwards. Projects approved under the previous version of the terms and conditions (before 5 December 2022) will remain under the previous eligibility criteria. Please see the FAQ document here for further information.
The eligible premises ‘Go List’ is an indication of which premises are eligible for UK Gigabit Voucher funding. The ‘Go List’ is changing frequently. Please check monthly to ensure you are using the most recent version.
Please Note: eligibility of a premises is not guaranteed until a voucher has been issued by BDUK.
A description of each column contained within the download is provided below:
Column 1 – UPRN: The Unique Property Reference Number of the eligible premises.
Column 2 – Lot Name (Lot Number): Name and lot number of the regional procurement area for that premises.
As part of Project Gigabit the UK has been divided into 45 Lot areas. Once a Public Review of existing and planned gigabit coverage has completed in a Lot, voucher activity is paused to allow a stable Project Gigabit procurement process. During this time only premises which have been granted Voucher Priority Area (VPA) status, and meet the relevant GBVS criteria, are eligible for vouchers. For further information on VPAs and how procurement impacts GBVS please see here.
Column 3 – Additional notes: Where relevant, further information has been provided regarding the eligibility of the premises – including in some cases the below flag description;
“Deprioritised – unlikely to be approved for project” – Analysis has shown that the premises is adjacent to commercial delivery plans or unsuitable for Project Gigabit funding.
- Premises with this flag in the ‘Go List’ may still appear as eligible within the new funding platform eligibility checker however they were determined to be unsuitable for inclusion in a Project Gigabit procurement and are therefore unlikely to be approved for voucher funding. They can however be included within project submissions for review.
Column 4 – Top Up Available: premises marked ‘YES’ in this column are eligible for additional ‘top-up’ funding made available by the respective local authority or devolved administration.

Please Note: The eligible premises ‘Go List’ is an indication of voucher eligibility for new projects submitted after 5 December 2022. It does not apply to projects approved before this date which operate under previous eligibility criteria.
Please speak to your usual BDUK Commercial contact if you have any questions.

Localised voucher project opportunities
BDUK would like suppliers to consider exploring voucher projects where we believe there is an appetite from communities for gigabit-capable broadband networks. BDUK is working with local councils to highlight potential latent and active demand in localised areas which are in need of improved digital connectivity.
Shropshire Council has identified the following key areas/communities where latent demand exists:
Exchange Area Opportunities
| Community/area | Example postcode | Exchange area |
| Cleobury North | WV16 6RP | Burwarton |
| Ditton Priors | WV16 6TW | Ditton Priors |
| Aston Eyre | WV16 6XD | Morville |
| Llanfair Waterdine parish | LD7 1TN | Knighton |
| Coreley | SY8 3AW | Cleehillstone |
