Transit Wireless today announced the addition of Verizon Wireless to its underground cellular network in the New York City subway system.
Verizon’s 3G voice and LTE 4G services are available at 35 different subway stations in Manhattan, from 23rd St. to 96th St, including Times Square, Rockefeller Center, Lincoln Center, and Columbus Circle. With Verizon on board, Transit Wireless, the company behind the underground network, announced that it is starting phase two of its project, which will bring cellular access to subway stations throughout Queens.
AT&T and T-Mobile are already available via Transit Wireless. Sprint is expected to become available from Transit this year.
