Verizon Recaps New England Network Upgrades in 2011, Valued at $297 Million
Verizon Wireless has been on a roll this past year. They’ve probably covered more Americans with 4G in one year than any of their competitors combined. One market they’re proud of is New England where they mentioned that $297 million went into one of their biggest regional expansions, enhancements and launches yet. On the year, they covered 195 markets – twelve of which are in New England – and aren’t slowing down going into 2012.
Their performance this year is especially important considering AT&T’s going to continue to expand their network and Sprint will soon begin an aggressive two-year rollout in the middle of this year. Both Sprint and Verizon expect to cover their entire 3G coverage area right around the same time so this will be a most interesting race to the finish.
