I-65 *was* reconstructed in the 1980's, though between the Kennedy bridge and Spaghetti Junction to the Watterson there ain't a whole hell of a lot of room. Can't exactly relocate two hospitals (Norton and Jewish)

Known locally as "hospital curve," even on the radio traffic reports.

Yep, and horrendous during wet weather especially.

Can't relocate the facilities even more so now, that IIRC, Jewish is undergoing a major expansion. The curve should be lessened once the Spaghetti Junction renovations are underway and a parallel I-65 bridge is complete.
