I have seen examples of stubs being constructed, end up as a ghost road for the next 3 or 4 decades, then suddenly are a thing that exists. I 5 opened in 1963 without ramps to I 84 east initially, but stubs existed. Then out of nowhere, ODOT pulls money out of the southbound end of a northbound cow, bulldozes a bunch of warehouses and builds the rest of the connection, opening, IIRC, in 1999.
