State Road 312Although it recently went as far east as US 12, SR 312 now ends at Cline Avenue in Gary and goes straight west until Sheffield Avenue, when it turns north for a few blocks. It then turns west again at Gostlin and makes a 45 degree right turn at the Illinois Border.There's a plan floating around that would place Indiana 312 on a bridge from east of Calumet Avenue into Illinois. Such a plan would give the surrounding neighborhood a different look (and make the South Shore station there again dangerous, I'm guessing); but with the economics the way they are now I doubt such a plan would make it past the drawing board. |
