The Shared Rural Network, developed by the UK’s four mobile network operators and Government, will deliver 4G coverage to 95% of the UK by 2025, enabling rural businesses and communities to thrive.
Through shared and new infrastructure, the Shared Rural Network will increase the parts of the UK that get 4G coverage from all operators from 66% to 84%, improving consumer choice.
The mobile operators expect the Shared Rural Network will extend mobile coverage to an additional 280,000 premises and for people in cars on an additional 16,000km of the UK’s roads, boosting productivity and investment in rural areas.
