VAL D’OR, Que. — Centre du Camion Amos has opened a new Kenworth parts and service facility in Val d’Or, Que., offering local fleets and truck operators easy access from Trans-Canada Quebec Route 117.

Kenworth Val d’Or is located on a 2-acre site about one-half kilometer north of the Boulevard Tetrault, the only direct route between southern Quebec and the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region.

Val d’Or, which is French for valley of gold, is the commercial center of the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region, where mining and logging are the main industries of the local economy.
