The Pulaski County Special School District is adding 24 new buses to its fleet. six of which arrived Tuesday.

The rest will be rolling into the bus yard over the next couple of days.

Executive Director of Operations Derek Scott says it's been a long time since PCSSD bought new buses: "It's nice to go out on the road and know you're in a reliable bus, a reliable piece of transportation to get you to and from your destination."

PCSSD purchased the 24 new buses for $1.5 million and plans to spend that annually to replenish the fleet.

The buses will also have video cameras installed to monitor what's going on at all times.
