Optus launches Gol Gol tower providing dedicated coverage and capacity relief for local community

Optus has switched on a brand new tower in Gol Gol, providing locals with a genuine alternative mobile provider strengthening Optus’ services across the far western region of  New South Wales.

The Optus owned tower located along Gol Gol North Road, is designed to provide dedicated coverage to Gol Gol and capacity relief for adjacent sites in the area; boosting the overall experience for local Optus customers. The Gol Gol tower activation offers locals access to improved 4G mobile connectivity.

Optus Territory General Manager for Regional South Australia, Rob Seymour said he is thrilled to be able to provide mobile coverage in the region.

“In a time when people are relying on staying connected more than ever, whether it be for work, educational and social reasons, we are investing in expanding our footprint across the far western region of New South Wales.

“As we continue moving forward with rolling out our best network ever, we know that customers want faster download speeds and confidence that they will be able to stay connected whether they’re at home or on the go.

“Not only does our new tower in Gol Gol deliver improved coverage and capacity by easing the load on sites in the area, it also provides competition and choice for local businesses and residents by offering a fantastic mobile services alternative. 

“We look forward to continuing our commitment to investing in the broader far western region, so customers can do more of the things they love, in more places.”

The tower activation comes as Optus makes a commitment to regional Australia. Between July 2019 to July 2020, Optus invested $25 million into strengthening its network presence across regional New South Wales, along with 42 new sites. As of March 2021, Optus has built on this figure with an additional 27 new sites.
