About

Golden Plains Shire Council invited the community to provide feedback on a proposed lease for a new telecommunications site located at Ackland Road in Lethbridge, a crucial step in improving connectivity within the region. 

The lease is being negotiated with a private provider, with community consultation required under the Local Government Act 2020

Council actively advocates for better telecommunications infrastructure to benefit residents and businesses throughout the Shire. We’re committed to ensuring the community’s voice is heard and reflected as part of this initiative.

The project is in the early stages and to begin detailed project planning the private company needs to secure a lease for land. The land in Ackland Street (adjacent to the rail reserve) has been identified as a suitable location. This project is in the early development phase, with funding and installation dependent on future opportunities.
