We ask MOPC residents for your patience as this is a large project. We will get to all areas of rural Pictou County, but it will take time. We are approaching the winter months and crews are working six days a week, long days, to get as much done as possible. You can continue to watch this website and our social media pages on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram for updates.
