Colorado State University: - Potential jeopardy for the erection of 1000 transmission towers.

The Traffic Light coalition plans to dismantle the Federal Mobile Infrastructure Company (MIG). This will come to a halt for over a thousand projects aimed at constructing cellphone towers to bridge mobile phone coverage gaps, as per the union.

CSU state group leader Alexander Dobrindt (53) targets Digital Minister Wissing, stating, "The Traffic Light coalition is promoting a mobile phone gap over progress in cellphone infrastructure. The Mobilfunkinfrastrukturgesellschaft's primary objective is to eliminate the mobile phone coverage gaps in remote areas. If the Traffic Light coalition decides to disband this company and not the gaps, it could have severe repercussions for rural regions. Minister Wissing must correct his dismissive stance towards rural areas and ensure that these 1,000 projects are completed."

Here's what you need to know: The MIG was established in 2021 with the CSU's endorsement and is responsible for bridging the so-called "white spots" in German mobile network coverage. These areas haven't been explored by mobile phone network operators due to their lack of profitability.

A spokesperson for Volker Wissing refuses to acknowledge to BamS any mobile phone coverage gaps or the halt in the erection of towers. They claim, "The federal government intends to close the remaining 'white spots' after the MIG's dissolution using a dynamic, market-driven expansion. Actions from the Gigabit Strategy will be implemented and completed meticulously."

Additionally: The current 4G cellphone coverage has significantly improved and is projected to reach the goal of 99.95% of households and 97.5% of the area almost or entirely [already] (presently standing at 99.87% of households, 97.36% of the area).
