The district is expected to break ground on the new Transportation Cooperative facility this summer. Construction bids are due July 14.

The 20,000 square foot facility will house school bus maintenance and repair operations for Walla Walla Public Schools, Educational Service District 123, and Dixie and Prescott school districts.

The facility will be located on the district’s 9.2 acre Support Services site which is located in a light industrial zoned area west of 13th Ave. near Koncrete Industries in Walla Walla.
