Verizon activated three new macro cellular sites in Fresno, bringing high-speed internet service to residents and visitors in South Sunnyside, Shields Avenue near the Fresno-Yosemite International Airport and south of Highway 180 and Chestnut Avenue.

The towers, which provide large areas of coverage, deliver 4G and high-speed 5G Ultra Wideband, boosting connection speeds and accessibility in the surrounding areas, according to Verizon.

The activation of the sites is part of Verizon’s multi-year, nationwide network transformation which adds more capabilities, upgraded network technology and personalized customer experiences, providing a platform for businesses and developers to attract customers and further business and economic growth in the Valley.
