In winter, ice or frost can build up on surfaces, including our trolley overhead wires. So, to prevent that from happening, we need our de-icing trucks!

Our trolley wire de-icing truck is the only one of its type in North America. It allows us to pump anti-icing fluid from the large tank, up through the poles, and then onto the overhead wires.

Step into one of our transit centres to see how we prepare them.
