Virgin Media O2 has announced plans to invest £700 million ($904m) into its mobile network this year in an effort to improve its reliability, speed, and coverage across the UK. The investment will be used to plug gaps in the telco's coverage in the country as the carrier reports that traffic over its network has more than doubled in the last five years.
“Our Mobile Transformation Plan combines the necessary financial investment with the latest technological innovation to make this a reality," said Jeanie York, chief technology officer, Virgin Media O2.
“We’re not just upgrading infrastructure; we’re creating a platform for future innovation. This program ensures our customers will continue to benefit from superior reliability as new technologies and demands emerge.”
