Cell towers in Le Blanc (Indre)

Declared supports include 2 water towers, with pylons making up most of the remainder.

Masts stand at Les Massicots, 9001 rue Lionel Bordessolles and 1 Rue des Terres Douces.

The declared supports are a 44 m water tower, at Les Massicots, for Bouygues Telecom, Orange and SFR; a 49 m water tower, at 9001 rue Lionel Bordessolles, for Orange; a 30 m pylon, at Les Massicots, for Free Mobile; a 38 m pylon, at 1 Rue des Terres Douces, for Free Mobile; a 54 m pylon, for Free Mobile.

The highest support stands 54 m (pylon). The median is 44 m, above the Indre median of 37 m.

Systems from 1997 are still on the register. Free Mobile switched on the first 5G here in December 2020; Bouygues Telecom followed in November 2023, Orange followed in February 2024. 2024 was the busiest year, with 10 new systems, most of them 5G.

Approved additions not yet in service are pending on one existing mast, for example Orange (5G 700 MHz) at 9001 rue Lionel Bordessolles. 2 Bouygues Telecom 5G transmitters are listed as technically operational — installed, but not yet declared commercially in service.

3 supports carry only Free Mobile.

Among the 7 Indre towns with at least five masts, Le Blanc ranks 6th by mast count. With 5 masts for 6,164 residents, or 8 per 10,000, it has fewer masts per inhabitant than the median for those towns (9).

On 3.5 GHz, the fastest 5G band: Free Mobile on all 3 masts, Orange on all 2 masts, Bouygues Telecom on its only mast and SFR on its only mast.

The widest declared gap between neighbouring supports is about 2.1 km, to the east of the centre.

Thure lies 51 km to the north-west and has less 5G (80%).

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