Digicel Haiti said that over 92% of its base stations are now fully operational and that a number of international circuits have been significantly increased to support all the international traffic in Haiti. Moreover, over 60 stores have reopened for business, and Digicel’s office in Turgeau, Port-au-Prince, is operational and the majority of employees are back at work.
In addition, T-Mobile has donated 4 Liberty Jeeps, 35 generators and 2,000 Motorola W160 phones to assist with the relief efforts.
Commenting on the achievement, Digicel Group’s CEO Colm Delves said: “We have made excellent progress over the last two weeks in restoring the Digicel network in Haiti. With over 92% of our cell sites fully operational, the remaining 8% — which are destroyed rooftop sites — are being replaced with mobile cell sites, some of which have already been deployed with the remainder scheduled to be commissioned over the next few weeks.
