The city of South Bend says the $10 million project, to narrow Bendix Drive from Voorde Drive to Lathrop Street and add a pedestrian path, is ready to start next year now that federal funding, comprising just over half the cost, has been confirmed.

The South Shore Line's operator, the Northern Indiana Commuter Transportation District, on Tuesday announced plans for gates, lights and bells at a pedestrian crossing in Chicago where 22-year-old Dyer, IN native Grace Bentkowski was killed by a train in 2024.

Officials will spend the first year identifying the path's route
