The Knoxville School Transportation Department is a little busier this year with the merging of the Pleasantville School District and their transportation needs.

Brenda Dunkin Knoxville Transportation Director says there are 18 school buses in Knoxville and 11 more in Pleasantville. As far as servicing the department, Knoxville also has eight other vehicles they use for transportation and Pleasantville has five more.
