The price is definitely higher than we had anticipated, South Shore President Michael Noland said.
The railroad had expected four bids, he said. The two it received were from F.H. Paschen, S.N. Nielsen & Associates, and from a Walsh/Herzog Joint Venture. The Paschen bid was the lower of the two.
The Northern Indiana Commuter Transportation District board will now need to decide whether to accept the best bid or reject them in an effort to achieve a lower price.Â
Noland said the railroad, along with its advisers and the Federal Transit Administration, will review the proposals to find out where the bids were high and see if there s an opportunity to rebid.
