Greyhound to open permanent Knoxville bus terminal by 2027
Four years after Greyhound closed its 100 E. Magnolia Ave. location , a new permanent location is in the works, the company announced. The new terminal will be in an old Wendy's on Knoxville Center Drive, across from the former East Towne Mall site. "We're in the early stages of preparing the new terminal, including permitting and site improvements, and we're targeting an opening in early 2027," a Greyhound spokesperson said in a statement. Greyhound plans on sharing additional details about the new bus station as it makes progress on the project, and stated the new facility will improve travel experience and regional connectivity. Since closing the terminal at 100 E. Magnolia Ave., Greyhound has designated a series of other unsheltered locations for its Knoxville stop, most recently using a city bus stop at 100-110 Kirkwood St. , which offers just a bench and an awning, but no building to provide shelter or restrooms for Greyhound passengers arriving or waiting to depart. "Greyhound is committed to serving Knoxville and the broader East Tennessee region, and signing this new East Towne lease reflects our long-term investment in the market," a statement from Greyhound said.
