Canada's telecom operator SaskTel has completed another 13 different 4G wireless network infrastructure enhancement projects across the Saskatchewan province in June 2013 to address growing demand for network coverage and capacity.

In addition to traditional towers being constructed across the province, SaskTel is also increasing capacity and coverage by deploying other options when traditional towers are not feasible due to space or other limitations.  These include installing carrier antennas to increase coverage strength inside of buildings, streetlights, rooftops, wooden and stealth poles, as well as installing new cellular sites such as towers or COWS (cellular on wheels) in various locations.

The communities that received 4G network enhancements in June 2013, including the type of enhancement completed are Regina, Saskatoon, Annaheim, Elbow, Alvena, Prince Albert, Christopher Lake, Emma Lake, Pelican Narrows, Moose Jaw, Good Spirit and Richmound.
