Mount Clemens, Michigan, Residents To Benefit From Verizon Wireless Network Enhancements
MOUNT CLEMENS, MI — Verizon Wireless has activated a new cell site in Mount Clemens, which enables more customers to use their wireless phones concurrently to make calls; send and receive e-mail and text, picture and video messages; access the Internet; view high-quality 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 along Cass Avenue as far east as Southbound Gratiot Avenue and as far west as Halsey Boulevard and along South Groesbeck Highway as far north as the intersection with North Rose Street and as far south as Harrington Street.
“Network reliability is the No. 1 reason that customers choose and stay with Verizon Wireless,” said Greg Haller, president–Michigan/Indiana/Kentucky Region, Verizon Wireless. “Getting through on the first try and maintaining a connection are important to them. We will continue to perfect our network so that our customers in Michigan know they can depend on us every time they pick up their wireless devices.”
This 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 Michigan and throughout the country. Verizon Wireless has invested more than $50 billion since it was formed—$5.5 billion on average every year—to increase the coverage and capacity of its premier nationwide network and to add new services. More than $1.2 billion of that investment has been spent on improvements to the company’s network in Michigan.
