Toronto Network Update July 16

By david | Posted July 16th, 2010

In Toronto, the network construction team has also been working hard to enhance our coverage. Here’s what they’ve been able to accomplish in the last week:

  • Bloor St E and Parliament – coverage in the St. Jamestown area, improving coverage around the intersection of Bloor Street and Parliament and the southern sections of Rosedale
  • Sheppard Ave East and Kennedy Rd – the Agincourt section of Toronto, and east of Highway 404 and North of Highway 401
  • Queen St and University Ave – In building coverage in downtown Toronto, and enhance the coverage at the University/Wellington intersection

The next areas we’ll be working on include the following:

  • Yonge Street and Gardiner Expressway – along the Gardiner Expressway, and  in-building coverage in the commercial buildings that line Queens Quay and Yonge Street.
  • Lawrence Avenue and Keele Street –Weston area, and along Keele Street

We’ll provide another update next Friday for both Montreal and Toronto. If you have any questions or comments, please let us know.

    Thank you for the update! I tell all my friends about Public Mobile, as I see you guys actually respond to the comments. I love the updates, and hope the expansion in coverage area and more phones are announced soon.

    One comment I did have in regards to your plans, is that you should include Caller ID on your 24$ plan, as Mobilicity includes it in their 25$. Nobody uses call waiting, call forwarding and 3 way calling much!

    I check the blog everyday! Thanks again!

    If you really intend on rolling out your service in Vaughn in 2011, this is too late!! Vaughn is the heaviest cellphone usage area in Toronto and delaying this area means hundreds of thousands of people in the condo areas of Vaughn won’t be in your system and lost revenue to you. Also I didn’t notice any Blackberry’s or other smart phones which are very popular in Toronto. Any plans to refresh your phone line. Can someone bring their own phone to your system??

    Best Regards for your success . More competition is great for all of us. Good Luck.

    Nice! Thanks for caring!

    Gershon Schwartz: All your answers are on the website. Data and new phones are rumored, but frankly I use iPhones and BlackBerries and I drop them for PM and save more than $250+ a month. Plus I don’t have to put up with Rogers and Bell treating me like snot.

    Take the leap, when you can, with or without a “better phone”. Until then, please be patient… you’ll be happy you did.
