Provincial Government Seeks Proposals from Cellular Providers to Expand Cellular Service

The provincial government has announced a Call for Proposals to cellular providers to address gaps and deficiencies in cellular service infrastructure in unserved and underserved communities throughout Newfoundland and Labrador.

A listing of communities identified will be given to service providers interested in submitting proposals during the Call for Proposals phase of the initiative. The list of communities will be reviewed and technical commentary provided on solution feasibility and the potential of enhancing coverage in the noted areas.

This is part of the Cellular Service Improvement Initiative, a cost-shared program to encourage partnerships to improve connectivity services.
