Fall 2020 – Launch of small cell technology review

Beginning in 2020, the City expects that cellular providers will be conducting independent trials of small cell and 5G infrastructure in Winnipeg. The City will be coordinating with wireless service providers during their trials to see how our existing policies, processes, and procedures regarding cellular infrastructure apply to 5G and small cells, and determine what, if any, amendments need to be made.

We are asking for your feedback before the trials begin. We will be reaching out to key stakeholders for interviews and asking questions to a random sample of Winnipeggers through a telephone survey.
