Cell towers in Brindas (Rhône)

Masts stand at Les Andrés, Parc des Sports, Les Broussatieres, Aux Andres, 79 Chem des Vieures and 67 Rue Pre Magne.

Every mast here is owned by a tower company rather than by a carrier. Mix: Cellnex (3), Totem (2) and Hivory (2).

Systems from 1997 are still on the register. Free Mobile opened 5G here in December 2020; Bouygues Telecom followed in September 2021, SFR followed in December 2021. 2018 was the busiest year, with 20 new systems, most of them 4G.

Approved additions not yet in service are pending on 2 existing masts, for example Free Mobile (5G 700 MHz) at Parc des Sports and SFR (5G 2100 MHz) at rue de la Joanna. 5 Bouygues Telecom 5G transmitters are listed as technically operational — installed, but not yet declared commercially in service.

The tallest structure is a 32 m pylon at 79 Chem des Vieures. The median height of measured supports is 26 m.

On 3.5 GHz, the fastest 5G band: Bouygues Telecom on all 3 masts, SFR on all 3 masts, Free Mobile on all 2 masts and Orange on all 2 masts. 5G is on 100% of masts here, against 87% across Rhône towns with five or more masts.

Nearby, Vaugneray (3.4 km to the north-west) has only 5 masts.

The widest declared gap between neighbouring supports is about 1.6 km, to the north-east of the centre.

6,775 residents over 11 km²: supports are mostly pylons, not rooftops.

Figures above cover installations declared to ANFR as in service or technically operational, as of October 2026; approved projects are not counted.
