Yes, I have wondered the same thing. The cynic in me says that the turnpike ramp is what we in the software business used to call vaporware - something that will never happen but sounds good as a marketing ploy. As I understand it the developer is funding this out of his own pocket. The only way this makes sense from a business perspective is if he will be able to sell houses for more money or at a faster rate if it is there. The longer that it goes undeveloped, the fewer houses that will be left from which he would be able to recoup his expenses - unless of course he subsequently expands the footprint of TV to allow the exchange to be a selling point for more houses.
