The City doesn't do a good job of publicizing projects, but such is the case with many, multiple projects in its existence. And in the end, who cares? They're tasked with making infrastructure developments. They don't need a plebiscite on every single infrastructure project just to please the masses.
I don't think even the GE5 interchange cost $150 million. It's probably the only one more than $100M. Most of the far out ones cost $40-60 million.
