AWTG Is Enhancing Tourism in Scotland and England’s Scenic Locations with 5G Connectivity Tourism is a vital contributor to the economy in England and Scotland, with visitors flocking to world-renowned landscapes such as the Scottish Highlands, Lake District, and Cornwall’s coastal beauty. However, these remote areas often suffer from connectivity gaps, limiting visitors’ ability to share their experiences or access information. The deployment of 5G aims to bridge that gap, enhancing the overall tourist experience and supporting the local economy.
With 5G technology, tourists will be able to navigate more easily, access real-time information about attractions, and share their experiences instantly on social media. Smart tourism services, including virtual guides and augmented reality (AR) experiences, can enrich their visits, making these locations more accessible and attractive year-round. In addition, local businesses can benefit from better connectivity, enhancing services like mobile payments, online bookings, and offering more tailored experiences to visitors.
AWTG is proud to be in charge of delivering 5G networks in these scenic yet remote areas, through The Borderlands 5GIR project, ensuring that both tourists and local communities can benefit from the next generation of digital services.
