BBC Local Radio Medium Wave transmission changes
BBC Local Radio Medium Wave transmission services in Cumbria, Derby, Gloucestershire, Norfolk and Somerset will close by the end of November 2026. This is the final phase of a switch off process which was announced in 2011 with phased closures in 2018 and 2020.
This means if you currently listen on MW radio, you will need to switch to another way of listening. The good news is that your local BBC radio station, programmes and schedules are not changing.
You can continue listening to the same local BBC radio service through:
FM radio
DAB Digital Radio
BBC Sounds
Online via the BBC website
Smart speakers
This change reflects how listening habits have changed over time, with more audiences choosing FM, DAB and digital services. Whichever platform you choose, you'll continue to receive the same local BBC radio programmes and content.
