  1. Good to see Lilly’s continued expansion. Investment to improve and widen I-65 & I-70 to 3 lanes across the entire state to meet the current and future truck and vehicular demands is imperative.

  2. There needs to be designated commuter rail running at least from W. Lafayette to Bloomington with stops at the LEAP, Whitestown, IU Indy campus, Lily Indy Campus to IU’s main campus. Similar short rail is being developed like this around the country, except Indiana. Wake up.

    1. OMG BRAD R. I was just telling a friend that if Indiana really wants to take a leap forward and compete against other Midwest states for higher pay jobs and companies to pick us to relocate their HQ, add a commuter rail. The new Methodist Hospital campus, IU and Purdue campus, the GM stamping plant area, to the LEAP and every where in-between. I would even have one going from the airport to downtown. Wouldn’t be a bad idea to even have a train dedicated to Ft Wayne, second largest city in Indiana as well as one up to Hamilton co. but I would make it where its only open to employees with badges or students at the different universities. Tech employees, students ect not to the general public. We all have seen what rides the IndyGO buses. Just being honest here.

    2. I know some will say you and Kevin P are hopeless dreamers, but I for one feel better knowing you are here and advocating for improvements that can actually make this state a better place to live and, yes, to do business. Keep it up!

    3. Kevin, I find it unlikely Indiana will ever move forward with people like you. You’ll continue electing fools who do things like ban light rail, and wonder why the State isn’t leaping forward.

    4. You are so right, Brad. Unfortunately, state legislators disagree that mass transit would be a gamechanger for improving quality of life in the state, as shown by their banning of light rail in 2014 and their meddling in Indy’s BRT plans. I disagree with Kevin, however, that rail should not be accessible to the general public and his characterization of “what” (he means who) rides the IndyGo buses.

    5. So, Kevin P. You want the state to spend tax money on a rail system that only the “Chosen” can ride. You are out of your mind. I can no longer take any thing you say as legitimate. I do agree the state needs to come out of the dark ages on transit,

    6. Riley Z. I’ll say what a lot of folks aren’t willing to say openly and that is every public transit system in America is trash and plagued with crime. I rode IndyGo for a few years and would never suggest riding certain sections of it. I’ve seen fights and stabbings and there’s nothing the driving can do but pull over and wait till IMPD shows up. A commuter rail to all the tech hotspots should only be used by those employees and not for folks to joyride. If you don’t in these areas there’s no need for you to ride. Indy has the BRT for the public that’s how you compensate for public spending on the general population.

    7. Pat B. The city already has BRT lines for the public and if you didn’t know, the very thing im bringing up is why you dont see lines from the BRT extended up to Hamilton County. They dont want homeless people aka undisrables to have access to transportation up to the suburbs to set up tents and beg for change in an empty Starbucks cup. Ive rode the subway and L’s in NYC and Chicago and it’s terrible and a breeding ground for crime. The Redline in Chicago in particular is notorious for gangs literally robbing in-front of everyone and even pulling people off the train to take them to ATM’s to withdraw funds. So yeah, Im saying a commuter rail to tech sector and universities shouldn’t be open to the general public. Just my option and there’s stats to just my prospective to be very valid.
