MURFREESBORO, TN — Stones River Mall shoppers and mall employees are receiving upgraded wireless coverage thanks to a new Verizon Wireless cell site. The additional network coverage in Murfreesboro expands coverage along portions of Highway 96 near Stones River Mall and the surrounding areas.
The new cell site dramatically increases data capacity and coverage of Verizon Wireless’ network to account for exponential growth in consumer usage of Web browsing, e-mail, apps, text messaging, media downloads and navigation tools available on the latest generation of smartphones. Visitors to the Stones River Mall will also enjoy unparalleled enhancement in network access and reception – specifically inside the mall – where reception can be more difficult.
“We’re committed to advancing wireless capacity and coverage for all our customers,” said Jerry Fountain, president of Verizon Wireless’ Carolinas/Tennessee Region. “We listen to our customers, and we invest in the areas where coverage can be improved to make the best network even better.”
All of Verizon Wireless’ data and voice services are available to people in every one of Tennessee’s 95 counties. Verizon Wireless invested more than $170 million in the Tennessee network in 2009 alone, making the company’s total investment in the state over $970 million since 2003. This newest cell site in Murfreesboro joins hundreds of others as part of the $59 billion capital investment Verizon Wireless has put into its network since its launch in 2000.
Verizon Wireless operates the nation’s largest, most reliable 3G network* that powers services such as Mobile Broadband and email. Verizon Wireless tests its network and those of its competitors in specially equipped vehicles that drive 1,000,000 miles annually. The company determines if voice calls and data connections are successful on the first attempt and if they stay connected.
To meet customers’ increasing demand for wireless products and services in this growing community, Verizon Wireless products can be found at the Verizon Wireless Communications Store at 580 N Thompson Lane, Murfreesboro, TN 37129, (615) 969-2020.
