Sherman, from the posts you've written in this thread, I'm guessing
that you're in support of the proposal to remove I-64 from the
waterfront...?

I'm in support of the removal if the proper measures are taken to ensure that traffic flow remains constant. That requires the widening of I-265 to three lanes north of I-64 (both in IN and KY), which the highway is designed (and ready) for. Bridge abutments, etc. are designed for three-lane widening; empty pier caps, etc.

An extended River Road that is a four-lane parkway, coupled with new developments that take advantage of the new roadway. Something like the West Side Highway that was reconstructed.
