Deutsche Telekom's plans for the 5G expansion include cities, towns, autobahns, main roads, and train paths. Business parks and schools are also included. "More than 30 percent of Germany's land is forested. When it makes sense to cover these areas with 5G applications, we'll do so," said Dirk Wössner, Managing Director of Telekom Deutschland. In rural areas, the company plans to offer rental space in all its transmission towers to interested third parties. In general, said Wössner, "we're open to partnerships for network expansion."
