Revealing the Truth About Mobile Coverage Across Local Authorities

Streetwave helps councils close the gap between national coverage promises and real-world mobile experience. Our independent signal maps show where connectivity falls short—in towns, estates, railway lines, rural communities, and tourist locations.

Used by over 100 councils, Streetwave supports funding bids, informs planning policy, and helps local teams hold providers accountable. Whether you’re advancing levelling-up priorities or planning new infrastructure, Streetwave empowers you to understand mobile network performance across your jurisdiction.
