e/West Lake Corridor

Information
has gloss	eng: The West Lake Corridor is a proposal for commuter rail service to serve the city of Chicago, Illinois, and the cities of Hammond, Highland, Griffith, Valparaiso, Hobart, Cedar Lake, Munster, Merrillville, Dyer, and Lowell in Indiana. According to one studied alignment, the line is to follow the Metra Electric Line to Kensington, then roughly the South Shore Line, Norfolk Southern (former Nickel Plate) and Indiana Harbor Belt Railroad to Hammond, and the abandoned Monon Railroad right of way, splitting at Munster to Valparaiso and Lowell. A map in the report describes an alternative bus service considered in the study, apparently to meet a Federal Transit Administration requirement that several modal and alignment options be addressed in the "Alternatives Analysis," but that alternative would not eliminate overloading on the main South Shore line.
