Temporary Change- Trucked Services Route
The City of Iqaluit would like to advise residents on Trucked Services of a temporary change to the delivery schedule, while water is drawn from the Sylvia Grinnell River.
Until further notice, the three water trucks on the road providing water to those homes on Trucked Services will all start their deliveries in Apex, working their way back towards Iqaluit. Changing the route in this way has allowed for more efficient delivery, resulting in faster service to the community.
