Loma Rica, California, Customers Receive More 3G Coverage With New Verizon Wireless Cell Site

Investment increases consumer value as demand grows for calls, e-mail, text, Web, video and music.

WALNUT CREEK, CA — Loma Rica residents, businesses and visitors are enjoying improved service thanks to a new Verizon Wireless cell site. The site expands wireless voice and 3G data coverage in the town of Loma Rica north to La Porte Street and Fawn Court, south to Spring Valley Road, east to Iowa City Road and Loma Rica Road and west to Nunneley Road.

The increase in coverage and capacity means the network can carry more calls, e-mails, text and picture messages in more places, and offer greater wireless access to the Web.

The company’s ongoing network investment in California now totals nearly $5.7 billion. Nationally, Verizon Wireless has invested more than $59 billion since it was formed – $5.7 billion on average every year – to increase the coverage and capacity of its premier nationwide network and to add new services. The result is the nation’s largest, most reliable 3G network that powers services such as Mobile Broadband and Mobile Email.

Businesses of any size can tap into the power of Mobile Broadband. The service allows users to connect to the Internet wirelessly while on the go to download music over-the-air, and access e-mail or corporate data.

Verizon Wireless tests its network and those of its competitors. The company determines if voice calls and data connections are successful on the first attempt and stay connected.

Nationally, Verizon Wireless’ real-life test men and women drive 100 specially equipped vehicles almost 1,000,000 miles annually. They drive on Interstate, U.S. and state highways, as well as major roads and streets in high-population areas, based upon U.S. Census counts. Vehicles are equipped with computers that automatically make more than 3.5 million voice call attempts and more than 19 million data tests annually on Verizon Wireless’ network and the networks of other carriers.
