As anyone who's ever taken the Trans-Canada Highway in Nova Scotia knows, the Colchester area, and specifically Truro, is a strategic crossroad.
It's where traffic from Canada's mostly easterly regions moves west. It's the turnoff to Atlantic Canada's major city, Halifax. And it's where more and more businesses are using location as a major development advantage.
As Jo Ann Fewer, executive director of the Colchester Regional Development Agency (CoRDA) points out, not only is the area a half-hour from Halifax's international airport and about an hour from Moncton's, it also has its own regional airport in Debert. It's less than an hour from the Port of Halifax, Canada's third busiest, and its two major container facilities.
