📋 Tender Overview
Rostelecom installed a base station in the village of Bizyurgub in the Volzhsky District of the Mari El Republic. Now more than 400 residents of the settlement can use high-speed mobile Internet and voice communications.
The work was carried out under the federal project "Elimination of Digital Inequality" (EDI 2.0). It provides for the organization of mobile communications in settlements with a population of 100 to 500 people. Base stations are connected to optical communication channels, which ensures high data transfer speeds, and are installed on towers to increase the coverage area.
Svetlana Pashukova, Director of the branch in the Republic of Mari El of PJSC Rostelecom:
"Rostelecom's communications infrastructure created in the republic provides opportunities for further digital development of the region. There was already optics in Bizyurguba, once it was laid for the local feldsher-obstetric station. From this access point, the line was extended to the support, providing mobile communications to the entire settlement. In total, in the region, according to the UCN project, base stations operate in 50 small settlements."
Venedikt Suvorov, Minister of Digital Development of the Republic of Mari El:
"Thanks to the program to eliminate digital inequality, residents of settlements where there was previously no high-quality mobile communications are getting access to modern telecom services. Of the 20 villages and towns included in the list for the public vote on Gosuslugi, Bizjurgub became the leader - it gained 264 votes out of 2,081. Now every resident of the village can call, send messages and use wireless Internet."
After the launch of base stations, residents of small towns will have access to the services of the mobile operator T2.
