WORKERS returning to offices can now benefit from greater mobile coverage on rail routes.

EE has announced significant upgrades to its mobile network across commuter routes in and out of London, including the line from Brighton to London Victoria.

The mobile network operator has built six new 4G masts along the route, to boost connectivity.

It comes after EE launched 5G services in Brighton last month.

The city is the first place in East Sussex to receive the new mobile technology on EE’s network.

Jane Thomas, BT Group regional lead for London and the South East, said: “This is fantastic news for commuters in Brighton as we begin to see more staff returning to offices and workplaces.

“Commuters, as well as general visitors between Brighton and London, will benefit from more reliable connectivity during their journeys – important for those who need to work on the train, make video calls, or simply keep in touch with colleagues or friends and family while they travel.”
