Members of the Jacksonville community are questioning Baltimore County plans to create a school bus lot close to what they call a dangerous and environmentally unsound intersection.

The county plans to convert a government-owned public works training site off Paper Mill Road into a parking lot for about 40 school buses, said county spokesman Don Mohler. A former Nike missile site, county officials said a consolidated bus depot will make bus routes serving Jacksonville Elementary, Carroll Manor Elementary, Cockeysville Middle and Dulaney High schools more efficient and conserve gas.
