National Parks England Signs Deal To Improve Mobile Coverage
The UK's four main network providers have pledged to help improve mobile phone coverage in England's national parks.

It is understood that the deal includes a pledge by the mobile networks to "minimise the adverse landscape effects", with any new masts needed being "sensitively located and sensitively designed".
