Cell towers in Roye (Somme)

Most of the town's 5 masts are pylons (4); 1 water tower make up the rest of the mix.

Antennas are listed at Sole du Chemin de Dancourt, Faubourg St Pierre, rue du Puits à Marne, Rue du Champs Macret and rue de Verdun.

The declared supports are a 33 m pylon, at Sole du Chemin de Dancourt, for Free Mobile; a 46 m pylon, at Faubourg St Pierre, for Free Mobile and Orange; a 16 m pylon, at rue du Puits à Marne, for Orange; a 33 m pylon, at Rue du Champs Macret, for Bouygues Telecom, Free Mobile and SFR; a 53 m water tower, at rue de Verdun, for Bouygues Telecom and SFR.

Systems from 1992 are still on the register. Local 5G started with Free Mobile in January 2021; SFR followed in November 2023, Bouygues Telecom followed in December 2023. 2023 was the busiest year, with 16 new systems, most of them 4G.

Approved additions not yet in service are pending on 2 existing masts, for example Free Mobile (4G and 5G) at Sole du Chemin de Dancourt and Free Mobile (5G 700 MHz) at Rue du Champs Macret. 3 Bouygues Telecom 5G transmitters are listed as technically operational — installed, but not yet declared commercially in service.

ANFR lists a 53 m water tower at rue de Verdun as the tallest structure. The median height of measured supports is 33 m.

Among the 6 Somme towns with at least five masts, Roye ranks 6th by mast count. With 5 masts for 5,833 residents, or 9 per 10,000, it has more masts per inhabitant than the median for those towns (8).

3 masts belong to TDF and 1 to Totem.

The widest declared gap between neighbouring supports is about 1.6 km, to the south-west of the centre. Most declared azimuths point outward, along a corridor or valley rather than at the centre.

On 3.5 GHz, the fastest 5G band: Orange on all 2 masts, Bouygues Telecom on 1 of its 2 masts, Free Mobile on 1 of its 3 masts and SFR on 1 of its 2 masts.

Nearby, Compiegne (32 km to the south) has 20 masts, more than here.

Colocation covers 3 supports.
