boss of me, I think it’s because the issue is so played out. Everyone knows the arguments pro and con.

The road will be built. But some people are so invested in and committed to opposing the road that they simply can’t back down now. Pride and stubbornness, more than any real issue that could compel sincere opposition to this sensible addition to our transportation infrastructure, are the primary motivators now.
