Verizon Wireless Network Enhances Service Lexington, Kentucky Residents

Verizon Wireless said it has activated a new cell site in northwest Lexington, which enables more customers to use their wireless phones concurrently to make calls; send and receive email and text, picture and video messages; access the Internet; view videos; and download music, games and ringtones, while enjoying clearer reception and fewer dropped calls.

The new cell site, which is equipped with a permanent backup generator for times of emergency, improves voice and data coverage in northwest Lexington.

"Building new cell sites, like this one in northwest Lexington, is just one aspect of our overall effort to increase the reliability of our network across the state," said Greg Haller, president-Kentucky/Indiana/Michigan Region, Verizon Wireless. "This year, we're investing nearly $36.5 million on our Kentucky network. By actually test driving our network and monitoring usage every minute of every day, we can ensure we're making the right improvements to meet our customers' needs."

The network improvement is part of Verizon Wireless' continual effort to expand coverage, improve capacity and enhance the quality of its wireless voice and data network in Kentucky and throughout the country, the company noted in a release.
