A Porter County Commissioner asks if expanding the South Shore into Porter County is worth the cost that taxpayers will have to pay.
Writes Teresa Auch of the Post-Tribune:
The estimated cost for expansions to the South Shore commuter rail is $500 million.
Porter County averages 750 to 800 riders a day.
Those numbers don’t add up for Porter County Commissioner Bob Harper, who said the expansion is not worth the money to taxpayers.
“Maybe another 740 (riders) will use it, but it’s a half a billion dollars,” Harper said.
