At a strategy session on tourism at the Russian Government Coordination Center, the possibility of placing base stations on the roads leading to major tourist destinations was discussed. It gives information about RIA News.
The purpose of this placement is to provide tourists with quality communication during travel and at stops. It is recommended to use funds from the state budget to finance such projects.
Ilya Umansky, President of the Russian Travel Industry Association (PCT), emphasized that mobile operators usually place towers in places with high tourist traffic in order to attract more subscribers. However, it is also important to ensure communication in strategically important locations that are not yet attractive to mobile operators.
Government representatives noted that when planning the construction of base stations, tourist attractions and infrastructure projects will be taken into account. The decision to allocate additional funds for this purpose has not yet been made, but the issue continues to be resolved by the Ministry of Economic Development and the Ministry of Digital Development. Umansky also emphasized that the development of roads and infrastructure, as well as the comfort of tourists, requires the provision of high-quality communication along the routes. As part of the measures discussed, it was also proposed to create multifunctional complexes along the main roads, where approximately every 50 km, autotourists can take a break, including the possibility of an overnight stay.
