Town of Truro Information

Keeping Town of Truro residents and those from out of town - who may want to visit or do business here - up to date on Town news and events. The Town of Truro was incorporated in 1875 and is the largest town in Nova Scotia, serving the core of Colchester County for over 140 years. Truro’s past rich heritage in business, education, music, and sports, as well as political and architecture and innovation has evolved even more because of regional co-operation, business confidence and citizens seeing the results of good sustainable planning. Our new brand "Make the Connection" to business and lifestyle (see video on YouTube by the same name) will show the new spirit of Truro Nova Scotia! Along with our new hospital, three new schools, new Civic Centre, renovated Stadium, and Marigold Centre for performing Arts, and modern outdoor pool in our famous 1,000 acre Victoria Park. Get ready to meet our new $7.5 million Library in the former Normal College accompanied by a $1.7 million upgrade to the Civic Square, you'll see we are embracing the future. Residential development downtown will have more people living in the core of Truro. There are many more new improvements to come, particularly vibrant new businesses downtown!
