Neterra has signed a contract for the design, delivery, construction, and activation of networks of access points for free Wi-Fi in the municipality of Makresh. The project also includes the village of Rakovitsa and the provision of internet access in 5 public areas with more than 25,000 square meters of total area. Neterra won the project on the European Commission's WiFi4EU initiative.
In Makresh, with the assistance of the telecom, residents, and visitors of the city will use free internet in the area around the municipality and in the park of the city. In the village of Rakovitsa people will have access to Wi-Fi in front of the mayoralty, the village square and the intersection, near the mayoralty.
Through the WiFi4EU initiative, the European Commission is funding the construction of networks to enable EU citizens and visitors to access free, high-quality wireless Internet in public places. The funds are given to the municipalities, and they choose the companies that implement the projects.
Since 2019, when the initiative was launched, Neterra has won competitions in several municipalities and has already successfully completed some of the projects.
For the thirty-six Bulgarian municipalities that have not participated in the WiFi4EU initiative so far, a new competition will be opened.
