    I'm most interested in how they'll expect you to get into global 4.

    Will probably hire the same bass-ackwards planning company that designed it in the first place

    It's all good until they make it a $35 toll

    Arsenal would be needed regardless! if you dont have a western access point I55/80 interchange would be a disaster!

    People will complain about the tolls, but as long as centerpoint keeps them reasonable then I think this is a win/win. I80/53 exit has been a fatal waiting to happen lately.. (not to mention the viaduct on 53)

    Extending the exit at Hollywood rd to continue south over the river and then connect to baseline at the stop sign by home depot.

    The environmentalists will fight this also. Just like they fought the other access road that center point wanted to build to enter BNSF. And why Joliet is so adimit about not allowing trucks to leave G4 by making a right, I'll never figure out.

    Trucks need a way to come from or go east on I-80 and currently, 53 is the quickest choice at this point. No one wants to drive all the way around to arsenal to come back to G4.
