More details on potential plans that would add an overpass to the intersection of Hively Ave and South Main St in Elkhart
The proposals were unveiled in a virtual meeting with the public on Tuesday. It’s an area that experiences significant train congestion with about 100 trains that pass that intersection ever day. Of the proposals two would keep Hively as is with an overpass connection at South Main Street or Bismark Ave, and the others would move Hively further south and make connections that way.
The city has had money set aside for the project since 2018, and construction is expected to start in 2023.
There is an in person meeting at Zion Missionary Church in Elkhart Thursday from 5-7pm to discuss other options in further detail.
