Verizon 4G LTE Coming to 15 New Cities, Expanding in 10 Existing Ones Tomorrow
Verizon’s 4G LTE rollout is moving a lot faster than anyone could have anticipated, and we’re certainly not mad at that. Tomorrow, August 18th, 15 new cities will be getting LTE and 10 existing LTE cities will be getting expansions to cover more people in the smaller surrounding markets. Highlights for new cities include Tucson, AZ; Worcester, MA; Albany, Syrcaus and Ithaca, NY; and Memphis, Tennessee. With this rollout, Verizon is covering 160 million Americans with 4G, more than half the country’s population. They are well on track to bring 4G LTE to their entire coverage network by the end of 2013, I’d say. Read on for the full list of new and expansion cities.
Tucson, Ariz.; Fayetteville/Springdale/Rogers, Ark.; Bakersfield and Salinas/Monterey/Seaside, Calif.; Fort Collins, Colo.; Frederick, Md.; Worcester, Mass.; Omaha, Neb./Council Bluffs, Iowa; Albany, Ithaca and Syracuse, N.Y.; Altoona and Johnstown, Pa.; Memphis, Tenn.; and Provo, Utah. The company is also expanding its 4G LTE network on Thursday in Washington, D.C.; Tampa, Fla.; Atlanta, Ga.; Baltimore, Md.; Boston, Mass.; Lansing, Mich.; New York, N.Y.; Cincinnati and Columbus, Ohio; and Salt Lake City-Ogden, Utah.
