Regina company braving ice roads to deliver homes to northern communities

Mar 19, 2026 | 9:59 AM

Herauf Modular Solutions are sending three buildings to a remote northern community to be used for youth transitional homes. And the trek to deliver the homes is not exactly straightforward.

“We’re in constant communication with the transportation company, who are in constant communication with the Department of Highways,” said Laurie O’Connor, administration manager at Herauf Modular Solutions.

“Because of the logistics, the weight and length of the units, we only have a certain window to deliver.”

A convoy of housing units are travelling over 700 kilometres from the Herauf Modular Solutions facility in Regina to St. Theresa Point First Nation in northern Manitoba.

Accessing the remote, northern First Nation requires driving over the Manitoba ice roads. With the rising spring temperatures, Herauf were against the clock to ensure they could safely pass the ice roads before temperatures became too warm.
