RIDGELAND, Miss. (May 2, 2024) –

C Spire, a diversified telecommunications and technology services company, has increased network coverage and capacity in Lowndes County. The enhancements are part of C Spire's $35 million investment over the last 15 months in critical parts of its service area.

"The Lowndes County area has always been a significant market for C Spire," shared Craig Jackson, general manager for C Spire's wireless division. "We have provided wireless connectivity to this area since 1991 when cellular phones were relatively new. Improving our network coverage and capacity can enhance our customers' network experience, which is very important to C Spire."

C Spire's strategic goal is to enhance the customer experience on the network consistently. By proactively adding speed, capacity, and coverage with micro and macro cell sites C Spire can stay ahead of customer needs. Therefore, C Spire constantly monitors customer usage and patterns to ensure optimal customer experience.

"The Network team strategically added the new macro site to provide additional coverage and capacity in the Highway 69 areas of south Columbus and New Hope," said Alan Jones, chief network officer for C Spire. "This area, with its many schools and neighborhoods, is a hub of activity. Customers must have reliable coverage for work and for students and educators to stay connected while at school. This is why C Spire is committed to enhancing our network in this area."
