New FirstNet cell sites launch in North Dakota to support public safety

North Dakota’s first responders are getting a major boost in their wireless communications with the addition of four new, purpose-built cell sites. The sites – two located in Slope County and one each in McLean and Stark County – are part of the FirstNet network expansion taking place in North Dakota, which is bringing increased coverage, capacity and capability to first responders across the state. These are the first new FirstNet sites to be publicly announced in North Dakota following the governor’s decision to advance its public safety broadband communications with FirstNet.

"These new FirstNet tower builds are a positive development for the state, providing increased coverage and improved connectivity for North Dakota’s first responders and residents,” said Duane Schell, North Dakota Chief Technology Officer. “We look forward to additional progress in 2020.”
