Improving Mobile Coverage in Cherry Gardens Project

Overview

Cherry Gardens is a high bushfire risk semi-rural community located in the Mount Lofty ranges of South Australia. Due to the local topography, Cherry Gardens is subject to mobile coverage and quality of service issues. The Australian Government has allocated up to $200,000 (GST exclusive) to deliver improved 4G mobile coverage and/or quality of service in Cherry Gardens and surrounding areas. The intended objective of the Project is to provide new or upgraded telecommunications network infrastructure which improves mobile coverage and/or quality of service in Cherry Gardens and surrounding areas. This grant opportunity contributes to the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Communications’ Outcome 5 to: Promote an innovative and competitive communications sector, through policy development, advice and program delivery, so all Australians can realise the full potential of digital technologies and communications services.
