Fibre Optic Update
For information relating to the build please visit https://www.seaside.ns.ca/annapolis.
For residents who will benefit from the Bell Aliant Fibre Op build, please see the below update as of November 18, 2020:
Port Lorne – There remain 1 make ready work order plus 1 highway crossing design to complete. We are waiting for the NSTIR permit to proceed with the highway crossing and expect that to complete within the next couple weeks. The Bell construction schedule will be confirmed after that time.
Bear River – Substantial progress on the Bear River make ready activities has been made with just 3 highway crossings and 1 water crossing to complete. None of these have yet been approved for construction and we don’t expect any approvals until early to mid December based on the overall number of these left across the province.
East Dalhousie – All regular make ready work has now been completed by NS Power as well as 4 of the 5 water crossings. The lone remaining water crossing has yet to be assessed but is expected to be completed by mid December.
2020 Annapolis County Volunteer Recipients
Volunteers are truly the heart of communities across Annapolis County. Together they help to make our communities stronger, healthier and more vibrant.
We recognized Volunteer Week and all the recipients of a 2020 Annapolis County Volunteer Award; however, due to the current conditions we had to postpone our Volunteer Award Ceremony to a later date (yet to be confirmed). But, we do not have to postpone the opportunity to learn more about these extraordinary people, so throughout the next few weeks I will be featuring our 2020 volunteer recipients. Click Here
