T-Mobile rural coverage has suddenly improved for some over the weekend, what's behind it?
Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR T-Mobile customers are now roaming on US Cellular's network after the recent acquisition, boosting coverage in many rural areas, especially across the Midwest. For now, US Cellular towers show up as extended roaming with no extra charges, but the networks will fully merge in the coming months for a more seamless experience. The deal could potentially hurt Verizon and AT&T, which relied on US Cellular roaming in rural regions—T-Mobile may eventually cut off those agreements to weaken rivals' coverage, though it could go either way here. As first noted by Phone Arena, a growing number of T-Mobile customers noticed over the weekend that service was stronger in some areas where the network previously had no or poor coverage. Most of these were in rural pockets of the country, including a large portion of the Midwest. Interestingly, these were areas that weren't actually on the T-Mobile network at all; they were roaming. Don't want to miss the best from Android Authority? Set us as a preferred source in Google Search to support us and make sure you never miss our latest exclusive reports, expert analysis, and much more. T-Mobile customers have now been granted access to US Cellular's network as part of the recent acquisition. Previously, US Cellular didn't allow roaming access to the Uncarrier. At least for now, the US Cellular towers are technically considered extended roaming, though there are no additional charges or any major restrictions here. It's also worth noting that the networks will formally merge in the coming months and should then provide a better, more unified experience. US Cellular might not have been a major or popular network across the US, but in many midwestern states, it was a powerful force that often was the only option in certain deeply rural parts of the region, especially. It also enjoyed a strong nationwide presence in certain rural markets beyond the Midwest. That makes the new acquisition a pretty significant win for T-Mobile customers, as there are now fewer places where they will run into service outages than ever before. The big question now is what this means for Verizon and AT&T customers, as both networks had reciprocal roaming agreements with US Cellular. The FCC and DOJ approval came with no restrictions on this end, so there's nothing to stop T-Mobile from removing access to its rivals if it so chooses. This could be a pretty big blow for the Uncarrier's rivals if T-Mobile pulls the rug out from underneath them. For example, my in-laws live in rural Iowa, and their only reliable network of choice is US Cellular, so without those roaming agreements, my Verizon service wouldn't work there. Only time will tell how the Uncarrier handles this, though it likely comes down to whether it's more profitable to keep the agreements or to axe them altogether to weaken the rural presence of its rivals.

Veolia's Municipal Water School Outreach Program Reaches Record 55,000 Students
PARAMUS, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Veolia's school outreach program in communities served by its Municipal Water business reached more than 55,000 students – an all-time high – during the 2024-2025 school year. Veolia's interactive lessons covering a wide range of water-related topics in communities served by its Municipal Water business reached more than 55,000 students – an all-time high – during the 2024-2025 school year. Share These free classes, aimed at complementing curriculum at each grade level, were presented to students across Veolia's Municipal Water service territories across North America. The learning continued beyond the 2,060 classes taught, including educational tours for thousands of students at water and wastewater treatment plants Veolia operates. Across all states, the program's instructors supported dozens of environmental outreach events from Earth Day celebrations to STEM nights. Karine Rougé, CEO of Veolia's Municipal Water division in North America, said, 'Veolia's school outreach program is an incubator for the next generation to find their roles conserving and replenishing water resources – operating infrastructure, protecting biodiversity, creating new technological breakthroughs and building a circular economy for water. Getting students interested in water plants the seeds to continue learning in these areas, discovering their careers and their futures in the science we need to provide environmental security to a changing planet. Some of those kindergarteners will be the next generation of our workforce in a blink of an eye, and all of them will benefit from the sparks we light in our educational programs.' Veolia's community relations managers and outreach instructors work closely with teachers to ensure that classes and outreach programs provide a valuable supplement to lesson plans. The programming is evaluated at the end of each school year, taking into account teacher and student feedback. This helps Veolia continue to adapt and evolve its programs in a way that engages students and makes them excited to learn about water. Patricia O'Brien, Science Teacher, Park Avenue Elementary School in Port Chester, NY, said, 'Veolia's programs provide our students with hands-on experience and a different perspective. Teaching them about where water comes from, how it's cleaned and how to conserve, gives them a lot to reflect on about the importance of water on our planet. ' Veolia's Municipal Water division serves 20.7 million people across America with water, wastewater and biosolids services, consistent with the company's global GreenUp strategy to lead the ecological transformation by depolluting, decarbonizing and regenerating resources.
