Three communities in Pictou County will have their capacity to manage wastewater improved and three communities will get improved drinking water after a combined investment of more than $17.7 million from the federal and provincial governments along with the Municipality of the County of Pictou and the towns of New Glasgow, Stellarton, and Trenton.

The Town of New Glasgow recently completed replacement of approximately 960 metres of aging cast iron pipeline between Maple Avenue and Dalcrombie Drive on Abercrombie Road to the quality of water supplied to residents, as well as improved fire protection.

The second project currently in progress is the Southend Storm Sewer Separation. Separating the stormwater and sanitary sewer pipes will help the Town increase its capacity to treat and manage wastewater and stormwater.
