Knox County 911

The Knox County 911 Center was established July 1st, 2011. Prior to that, 911 services operated under the Barbourville Police Department, and Knox County Ambulance Service. The consolidation of services was viewed as a clear benefit to the citizens of the county. By coming together, it allows all emergency telephone calls to be answered in a central location and all police, fire and emergency medical services to be handled by a single agency.
