MegaFon has accelerated mobile Internet on the main roads of the Lower

The operator’s engineers have upgraded the network on the main highways of Nizhny Novgorod. Technical activities were held in the river and mountainous parts of the city. Drivers will be able to use navigators even more comfortably, and passengers will be able to quickly download heavy files, chat with friends or play on their smartphone while waiting for their stop.

The carriers deployed a special high-frequency layer at base stations to increase capacity and service growing traffic, and also refarmed, transferring radio frequencies from 3G to LTE. Thanks to the work carried out in some areas, the data transfer speed increased by 30% and is more than 200 Mbit / s.

Most of the telecom facilities were modernized on Gagarin Avenue. This largest transport artery of Nizhny Novgorod with a length of more than 10 kilometers passes through two districts: the Soviet and Prioksky. In each of them, subscribers will notice an improvement in communication not only on the highway, but also in the surrounding facilities: the museum-apartment of A.D. Sakharov, the children's city hospital, Lobachevsky University, the park "Switzerland", the bus station "Sherbinki".

In addition, in the upper part of the city, specialists pumped communication on the streets of Yamskaya, Rodionov, Dobrolyubov, Ulyanov.

In the transriver part, the improvement touched on the territory near the Borsky Bridge, which connects the regional center with the northern districts of the Nizhny Novgorod region, Kuzbassskaya Street - the highway with the most dense traffic of freight transport, Komsomolskaya Square - the largest transport interchange of the river part of the city and Bauman Street.

“Nizhny Novgorod has almost half a million passenger cars and hundreds of public transport units. Almost every one of our subscribers spends at least an hour on the way, actively using communication services, so we improve the telecom infrastructure along the roads. With the help of the mobile Internet, drivers can quickly learn information about the traffic situation, use the navigator, and passengers will be comforted by the opportunity to read news online, chat with friends and family, watch a movie or play while traveling, says Alexei Mikhailov, director of MegaFon in the Nizhny Novgorod region.

Since the beginning of the year, the operator’s engineers have built and modernized more than 600 telecom facilities in the Nizhny Novgorod region, which is a record figure for the region.
