As much traffic as travels those roads the relative lack of cell service outside of towns is disgraceful.
Most of those of us who live in those areas and drive those roads year-round, don't feel that need. Once tourists leave, even the Alaska Highway sees very little traffic.
You are very brave to be speaking for so many beyond yourself.
It is precisely during the winter that the need for service along those roads is most important.
And I am curious just what possible objection could you have to expanding that service? Given it's overwhelming positive impacts?
And just for full disclosure I have driven the road twice in winter conditions. Once in Late November in 1973 and once in March 2 years ago.
