Please note: The Middle Ohio tower is a Rogers tower. If you are a Bell or Eastlink customer, you will need to check with your provider to confirm whether they have a roaming agreement with Rogers in that area.
The Province’s plan to expand cellular service to thousands of Nova Scotians in unserved areas has reached another milestone with new towers now active at three sites in southwest Nova Scotia and one in Halifax County.
The towers – in East Kemptville, Yarmouth County; Middle Ohio, Shelburne County; North Range Corner, Digby County; and Millen Mountain, Halifax County – support stronger connectivity, safety and access for people living, working and travelling in dozens of communities in those areas. The Province and service provider Rogers announced this latest milestone in the Cellular for Nova Scotia Program today, July 8.
“With these towers now up and running, we’re making it safer and more connected for people in these communities,” said Public Works Minister Fred Tilley, also the Minister responsible for Build Nova Scotia. “Whether calling for help in an emergency, staying in touch with family, working from home or learning online, reliable cellular service makes a real difference.”
Overall, Rogers is upgrading 27 sites through Phase 1 of the Cellular for Nova Scotia Program, and the Government of Nova Scotia will add 27 provincially owned towers to further expand coverage in Phase 2.
