Free WiFi Arrives in Downtown Paris

County of Brant Mayor, David Bailey, says the new pilot project to bring free WiFi to the Downtown Paris BIA will work to give residents and visitors alike a better overall experience of the local shops and businesses in the area.

PARIS/BRANT COUNTY - The County of Brant has announced a new pilot project to install WiFi in downtown Paris. 

The initiative is said to work to enhance the experience for both residents and visitors by providing internet access in the Downtown Paris Business Improvement Area (BIA).

County of Brant Mayor, David Bailey, says the new project will help both locals and visitors alike have a better experience in the area.

“Having accessible internet downtown will allow those visiting the area to make the most of their shopping experience."

The primary coverage area will include the Downtown Paris BIA, allowing individuals to connect to the internet while shopping or conducting business for short periods, while ensuring fair usage for all by preventing persistent connections. Signage will also be installed in downtown businesses to notify customers.

"By providing free WiFi, we are creating a more connected, convenient, and attractive environment for everyone, ultimately contributing to the community's economic and social well-being," says Bailey.

They say the project represents a significant step towards modernizing downtown Paris and improving the experience for everyone who visits, adding that they look forward to seeing the positive impact this service will have on the community.
