Build dates & go-live dates for new sites are always subject to change and thus never announced publicly. Out of interest, is this a streetside monopole or a greenfield tower build?

5G itself is a radio technology, both 4G & 5G are equally capable of providing indoor coverage - given proximity & correct spectrum deployment.

You've not attached any photographs. All UK network sites are multi-technology, there's no such thing as a "5G mast" - that site will very likely be carrying 2G, 3G & 4G in the case of O2.

I do apologise I replied via gmail that’s why the photos never uploaded.
