MERRIAM, Kan. — School bus companies across the Kansas City metro area are struggling to cover all of their routes.
Students will soon be heading back to school and companies such as DS Bus Lines are doing what they can to make sure kids don't have to wait long for their bus and get to school on time.
DS Bus Lines works with the Shawnee Mission School District.
Monday, a hiring event for bus drivers was scheduled to be held at 5519 Merriam Dr. from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Applicants must be at least 21 years old, have held a valid drivers license for the last three years and have received no major traffic violations within the past 10 years.
DS Bus Lines pays drivers $16.80 per hour.
