Shared Rural Network

Martin-O2 — Wed, 02 Sep 2020 16:42:12 GMT

Hey everyone,

In March 2020, the Government announced that they would be backing the Shared Rural Network proposal, which we had been championing since 2018. Here’s what it will mean for rural communities across the UK.

Our commitment to expanding rural coverage demonstrates how much we invest improving coverage for all our customers. It’s just one of the reasons we’ve been named uSwitch’s Best Network for Coverage three years running, as voted for by customers.

You can find out more about the Shared Rural Network initiative here,or take a look at the impact of 4G on the rural community Staylittle below.

Remember, all of the images we share on this board can be shared with the wider customer community, so feel free to use these as an aid to your network conversations.

Just a shame that Communications tower has to stand out quite as much as it does in the breathtaking landscape...

Just spotted your comment here @pgn . Interesting, I wonder it might be quite hard to "camouflage" that type of tower as it looks like it's standing tall by itself in the middle of a vast clearance, based on the photo you posted.

Any ideas what you'd camouflage it as? Just wondering for fun! Massive tree?

The photo is a still from the YouTube video in the original post, @Marjo.
