A new site in Manassas boosts coverage along Bethlehem Road near Wellington and Bull Run. Another site in Bristow improves coverage along Milford Road.

Why is this important? We know how important it is for our customers to stay connected. And AT&T 5G brings fast, reliable and secure connectivity to more than 290 million people in over 24,000 cities and towns nationwide. This helps Virginia residents, businesses and visitors get the best possible experience over the AT&T network wherever they live, work and play.

These enhancements also bring Band 14 spectrum to the communities. Band 14 is nationwide, high-quality spectrum set aside by the government specifically for FirstNet. We look at Band 14 as public safety’s VIP lane. In an emergency, this band – or lane – can be cleared and used exclusively just for FirstNet subscribers. When not in use by FirstNet subscribers, other AT&T customers can enjoy Band 14’s added coverage and capacity.

Our commitment to Virginia communities: From 2019 to 2021, we invested more than $700 million in our networks in Virginia. These investments boost reliability, coverage, speed, and overall performance for residents, visitors, and businesses in the state.
