It’s not unknown that cell service can be spotty in South Jacksonville, the coverage could soon improve for those on the Verizon network.
The tower is located on farmland at the corner of Illinois Route 100 and Oxville Lane in the village.
Chris Serico, a Verizon spokesman, said he could not discuss any future projects, but said Verizon has been looking to expand coverage throughout the county, especially as more people work remotely.
