Telus announced that the $4 billion investment will be invested through 2018 which will mean a total of more than $47 billion worth of investments in BC since 2000.

“Most notably, it will have a tangible impact on citizen’s lives as we directly connect homes, businesses, hospitals, schools, community centres and municipal governments in all corners of the province in our fibre optic network," said Telus Executive Chair Darren Entwistle

As one of the largest companies in BC, Telus hopes to continue to expand telecommunication networks throughout the province, including this list of projects.
