Love it or hate it.
There didn't seem to be much common ground Thursday regarding a proposed commuter rail line from Arnold to Pittsburgh's Strip District -- at least not among those voicing opinions at a public hearing at the borough municipal building.
The hearing was held to gauge public reaction to the Eastern Corridor Transit Study -- a plan of six alternative transportation projects aimed at making the commute to downtown Pittsburgh easier for eastern suburbanites. As expected, the commuter-rail plan dominated the meeting because it's the most local of the proposals.
Other hearings are scheduled throughout the eastern suburbs to discuss the plan, formulated by the Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission -- the group designated by PennDOT to help plan transportation projects in Greater Pittsburgh's.
