Powertec Telecommunications has delivered six new Cel-Fi repeater towers along the Esperance coast, improving mobile coverage at Wharton Beach, Observatory Beach, Alexander Bay and 9, 10 and 11 Mile Beaches.
Now commissioned, these are the first six of 35 repeaters being installed under round two of the WA Government’s Surf Beaches Mobile Coverage Grants Program.
For locals and visitors, improved connectivity helps them stay connected while enjoying the coast. Alongside nearby Beach Emergency Number (BEN) signs, it also supports communication with emergency services when help is needed.
We’re proud to help keep regional Western Australian communities connected.
