New Adair Co., KY bus garage similar to this one 2014-10-30 - Adair County School District Campus - Photo photo courtesy Sherman, Carter & Barnhart. Gabe Jones, architect with the Sherman, Carter Bernhart in Lexington, KY, presented this drawing of a bus garage done elsewhere, similar to one the firm recommends for Adair County, but with the layout reversed. The Metal Building will for Adair will have three service bays instead of the four shown above, but will include an outside, covered bus washing bay on the end. Supt. Alan Reed said that the office, shown on the right above, would be where the wash bay is above, and vice versa. To improve the esthetics, he hopes that windows can be added for the office area. The new bus garage will pay for itself in a few years, he said, through savings by buying standard buses, and in turn, on reducing the number of buses needed on field trips. The new facility will have plug in diesel fuel warmers at each parking slot, making start up in cold weather easier and less costly. The building will be built on property recently acquired from the Sherman and Sherman Wayne Burton. Read More... | Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
