All four MNOs took part in that trial.<\/p>\n<p>Suffice to say, it was only a matter of time before the first operators signed deals with BAI to harness the new infrastructure, with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/eebroadband\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">EE<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/threeuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Three UK<\/a> today becoming the first to jump and thus overcoming some early concerns about the high cost of entry.<\/p>\n<p>Both operators will also be able to access the London Underground <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/wifi\">WiFi<\/a>, as well as BAI&#8217;s neutral host mobile network, which can also be made available to the Emergency Services Network (ESN).

A full-fibre network will also be delivered that will connect to buildings and street assets, like traffic lights and lampposts that house small mobile transmitter cells to leverage the power of 5G and the Internet of Things (IoT). These can then be used by boroughs, academics and developers to deliver improvements in everything from air quality and traffic congestion to public safety and city planning etc.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, it takes a long time to deploy this sort of network because it has to be done safely, to fit around an otherwise very busy underground transport network, where access is limited.<\/p>\n<p><strong>UPDATE 9:06am<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Good news for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vodafoneuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Vodafone<\/a> customers.
