Optus has announced a $1.6bn network sharing agreement with its rival TPG after lobbying against a similar deal between TPG and Telstra, which was kiboshed by the competition tribunal last year.
The Singtel-owned company and Vodafone’s parent company said on Monday the agreement will see TPG more than double its 4G coverage to 1,000,000 sq km and reach 98.4% of the population.
