WALTHAM, Mass. -- Airpath Wireless, Inc., the leader in enabling management and roaming for wireless broadband networks, today announced that the City of Worcester, Massachusetts has deployed wireless broadband at its City Hall Common and Union Station leveraging Airpath’s WiBOSS Lite solution. From these locations residents, visitors and travelers can access the Internet for free with their Wi-Fi enabled computers and handhelds. WiBOSS Lite is Airpath’s easy-to-use service that allows providers to offer free Wi-Fi quickly, easily and at minimal cost. The all-in-one hosted solution manages the business and technical functions of Wi-Fi networks and works cohesively with the hardware and system platforms used for public Internet access networks.

The City of Worcester, New England’s third largest city, is located 45 miles west of Boston in the heart of Central Massachusetts. Last month, Worcester completed Phase I of a multi-million dollar makeover of City Hall Common which included the state of the art Wi-Fi deployment. The deployment extends throughout the Common and includes Union Station, Worcester's restored multi-use transportation center that serves as an inter-modal hub featuring MBTA train service to Boston.

“We are excited to work with technology leaders like Airpath to provide this crucial service to everyone who lives in, works in or visits our city,” said Julie Jacobson, assistant city manager for economic and neighborhood development.

“Students from the nearby Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences are already sitting with their laptops on the common,” noted City Councilor Joseph Petty, who thanked his colleagues on the City Council for their advocacy of increased use of wireless technology downtown.
