About the Project

In an ongoing effort to provide quality wireless service, Verizon Wireless has identified your community as one that will benefit from improved network coverage. 

Milestone Communications is proposing a wireless telecommunications facility at Ferry Road

Address: 9 Ferry Road, Fredericksburg, VA 22405

The proposal includes a 150-foot monopole, which will be constructed in place of the existing water tank, along with the ground equipment necessary to operate the facility. T-Mobile is currently installed on the water tank. When the existing water tank is decommissioned T-Mobile will relocate it’s existing wireless facilities from the tank to the proposed monopole. Verizon Wireless will then install on the tower as well.

This equipment will be located at the base of the structure within a secure fenced area.
