The essential upgrade works are set to be completed by July 21 if the weather permits it.

Residents and customers in the area may see some services interrupted but Telstra are working to ensure potential drops in service are minimised.

As this work is to be completed during daylight hours to abide with health and safety requirements, customers may experience short impacts to their service during July 16 and 21.

All customers with 4G or 3G services including data and mobiles, and mobile EFTPOS facilities, may be impacted at times during this window.

“The works will increase site coverage and capacity with every effort made to reduce the impact to our customers,” Telstra Area general manager Steve Tinker said.

“We understand this is an inconvenience and we thank residents for their patience.”
