The UK government has extended its Shared Rural Network (SRN) programme, which seeks to improve mobile connectivity in rural areas across Britain. Initially focusing on EE customers and 999 calls, over 50 mobile masts will now serve all mobile network operators. Announced in 2019, the SRN aims to wipe out mobile not-spots, achieving 95% 4G coverage by 2025. With £1.3 billion invested, the programme combines funding from both public and private sectors, resulting in significant upgrades and the potential to cover 10,000 sq km for the first time by 2027.
