Verizon Wireless Adds New Cell Site In Gaylord

Verizon Wireless has activated a new cell site in Gaylord that improves voice and data coverage along M-32 between Gaylord and Johannesburg.

Coverage is also improved in the area east of Gaylord and Otsego Lake as far south as McGraw Trail and as far northwest as the intersection of Marquardt Road and Seymore Road, which becomes Whitehouse Trail.

To the southwest, coverage is improved along Johnson Road, east of I-75 and along Chester Road, south to Bob Lake Trail.

The new cell site is equipped with a permanent backup generator for times of emergency.
