AT&T to Invest $80 Million in the North Carolina Network in 2008
Posted on: Friday, 11 April 2008, 12:00 CDT
AT&T is planning to invest more than $80 million to expand wireless coverage in the North Carolina network in 2008.
The planned investment will bring AT&T's three-year network investment in the state for wireless and wired services to nearly $1.5 billion.
AT&T will add 85 new cell sites in the state, including more than 30 cell sites in Charlotte. While additional sites are being deployed in Raleigh and Greensboro, the company will roll out its higher-speed 3G wireless network in Fayetteville and Jacksonville by the end of 2008. AT&T also plans to expand its 3G coverage in the Raleigh metro area.
Alison Hall, vice president and general manager for AT&T's wireless operations in the Carolinas, said: "After deploying 434 cell sites in North Carolina between 2004 and 2007, we now have a better opportunity for customers to experience our network improvements firsthand. This year's investment is a testament of our continued momentum."
