AT&T Spends $450 Million To Improve Cell Coverage

AT&T customers in Westwood and Century City will benefit from network improvements the company has made over the past few months, according to a representative.

The company has spent about $450 million to improve coverage in Los Angeles -- 1,700 network improvements in the last few months, according to Meredith Red, an AT&T representative.

"This is a densely populated populated area where AT&T invests heavily," Red said.

Century City currently has at least nine cell phone towers and three are at UCLA.

The company made more than 1700 network improvements over the past few months and has seen a 41 percent decline in dropped calls, according to a news release.

“We are committed to deliver the best customer experience possible, by expanding network capacity and improving service quality,” said Andy Shibley, AT&T vice president and general manager in Los Angeles, in a statement. “These improvements translate into tangible customer benefits.”
