We're having full fibre installed around the place, which involves digging the street up to run the fibre optic cables (I feel wrong calling them cables, but you know what I mean) and despite how much better it will be, and despite the fact that BT (the main telecoms provider here) are supposed to be replacing all copper telecoms stuff by 2025, there's still a lot of moaning and whining about all the disruption. Now we have a road closed (admittedly for quite a long time) while a major road layout change is done to reduce congestion and open up more land for building in the future, and we have FB and similar groups full of local people who are suddenly experts on running a civil engineering project commenting on how it should be possible to do it quicker. And presumably for less money, too.We had people actively fighting an OPTIONAL fiber installation in our neighborhood. Thankfully “it passed.” But fiber is physical infrastructure and the rest of the world has gone bad a$$ wireless. I still have trouble making phone calls sometimes.
It's coming along here in the UK as well, with a few places locally offering self-storage, one has been there 10+ years so must be doing reasonably well. It won't take vehicles, or maybe it will if you drain all the fuel out.Self-storage is such a uniquely weird American concept. Elsewhere people just throw away or donate stuff they don't need instead of keeping it forever who knows why.
