CURBSIDE COMMENT: "Do you support turning Gary/Chicago International Airport into a people-moving hub, with trains, planes and buses using it as a terminal?"

Shanon Mathis, Hobart
"Anything that will help Gary will help Northwest Indiana. I came close to flying out of there once, but they canceled our flight."

Scott Szynalik, Schererville
"No, I think it would be too much congestion for that area. I fly for work and go from Chicago. I leave the congestion there and come home."

Sue Castillo, Hammond
"I think we need better transportation and access to get us places. I have no problem improving this area at all."

Linda Fogarty, Hammond
"I think that would be a great idea. It would help Gary and the economy. When the airport was there, I flew out of there."

Malcolm Ramsay, Highland
"Anything to help them out. If it were a high-speed connection, I‘d use it."

Phil Kostelyk, Hammond
"Sure. It's a lot closer than O'Hare or Midway."
