Stronger Mobile Connectivity for Chester

Stronger mobile connectivity for Chester

New 4G and 5G infrastructure has been installed across Chester, improving mobile signals and broadband connection for residents, businesses, and visitors.

Cheshire West and Chester Council has secured an Open Access Agreement with Ontix, a leading neutral host operator to install a network of small cells on existing lampposts. This boosts mobile coverage while keeping visual impact to a minimum..

The first phase of the project will provide improved connectivity in areas that have struggled with poor signal, including Northgate Street, Foregate Street and Eastgate Street. Further improvements are planned later in the year, bringing stronger, more consistent mobile coverage across the city.
