The Indiana Department of Transportation will conduct a public hearing today regarding the recently released Draft Environmental Impact Statement for Section 4 of the I-69 corridor. I-69 Section 4 begins at U.S. 231 near the Crane Naval Surface Warfare Center and runs northeast to State Road 37 just south of Bloomington. Among all the reasons given to fight I-69, its environmental impact is perhaps the most serious. We sit down with two staunch opponents of the superhighway: Tom Tokarski, founder of Citizens for Appropriate Rural Roads, and city council member Andy Ruff.
