Strategic Tourism Expansion Program (STEP)

In 2024, the County of Colchester and the Town of Truro, along with the partnership of the Town of Stewiacke and Millbrook First Nation, proactively facilitated Tourism Atlantic’s (ACOA) Strategic Tourism Expansion Program (STEP) process to create a Regional Strategic Tourism Plan for the region. The Plan, which was approved by each partner in February and March 2025, addresses existing opportunities and challenges and lays the foundation for long-term initiatives to ensure responsible and sustainable success for the region’s communities, citizens, and tourism sector.
