In Montreal in the last week, we’ve added equipment in the following areas to improve reception:
- Riviere-des-Prairies: we expanded coverage in many areas of RDP such as: Gouin Blvd. East and Alexis Carrel Avenue, 87th Av. and 4th St., Maurice-Duplessis Blvd. and 50th Av., 3rd St. and 63rd Av., on De la Riviere des Prairies Blvd. between the 7th St. and La Martiniere St., 71th Av. between 5th St. and 6th St.
- Montreal-East: Marien Av. and De Montigny St.
- Dorval (near the airport): Saint-Francois Rd. and Vanden Abeele St.
In the upcoming 2 weeks, we’ll be adding more sites that will improve coverage in NDG, St-Pierre City and LaSalle.
As for Toronto, we are continuing to work on the sites mentioned last week. Construction issues delayed these sites from being turned on this past week, but issues are now resolved and completion of these sites is close.
We’re continuing to work to expand and improve our coverage and we hope you’re noticing a difference. Please keep the comments coming as we do forward them on to the network team.
