TRURO

Truro is a town in central Nova Scotia, Canada. Truro is the shire town of Colchester County and is located on the south side of the Salmon River floodplain. The town was first settled in 1761 by Presbyterians of predominantly Ulster Scottish origin who came from Ireland via New England. It is named after the city of Truro in Cornwall, England.

Originally a small farming community, the construction of the Nova Scotia Railway between Halifax, and Pictou in 1858 caused the municipality to experience a fast rate of growth. It was officially incorporated in 1875.

Truro, was once known as the "Hub of Nova Scotia" as it is located at the junction between the Canadian National Railway, running between Halifax and Montreal, and the Cape Breton and Central Nova Scotia Railway, running between Truro and Sydney. Until the 1980s, Truro also hosted a junction between the Canadian National and Canadian Pacific Railway's former Dominion Atlantic Railway line running through Windsor and down the Annapolis Valley to Yarmouth, Nova Scotia.

An important highway interchange is located just north of Truro in the rural community of Onslow where Nova Scotia Highway 102 (Veterans Memorial Highway) ends at Nova Scotia Highway 104, a part of the Trans-Canada Highway. The Nova Scotia Trunk highways 2 and 4 intersect in the town as with the Glooscap Trail and Nova Scotia Route 236.

Home to more than 12,000 residents and a thriving business community, Truro boasts amenities that no other Town can offer: Victoria Park; a natural woodland park of roughly 400 acres in the centre of town, home of the Tidal Bore, and the largest Harness Racing facility in the Maritimes. Truro has been described as a Victorian Market Town in both character and architecture.  A wide variety of architecture can be seen in the downtown core and in Truro’s three designated Heritage Conservation Districts. Enjoy the many colourful murals and tree sculptures that depict the town’s rich history.
