    BT contractual delivery date is 60 working days, i.e 3 months.
    The alternative telcos quote shorter lead times, however if your
    installation requires construction (i.e. road digging) you're likely to
    be out of luck. That would seem unlikely, however, given the development
    is quite new and large (I used to travel by it every day so know it
    slightly).

    I would contact the landlord and ask for a list of on-site telcos. It's
    likely that someone like COLT, Abovenet, Thus, and so on are onsite and
    will be able to deliver service reasonably quickly.

    This is all assuming fibre, of course - you didn't say just how much
    bandwidth you need. SDSL (don't forget multipair bonded) can be
    delivered on a much shorter timescale (~2 weeks) and may be an
    acceptable alternative. If so, look for the more specialist business
    ISPs on adslguide.org.uk
