Isn’t there supposed to be a highway to the east connecting to the interstate opening up?
Yes.

The project is a one of three segments of a new four-lane, divided highway from I-12 near Lacombe to the southern terminus of LA 21 in Bush. This segment connects LA 36 to LA 435 in Talisheek. The length of this segment is 8.2 miles. This project is being funded by the British Petroleum Deepwater Horizon settlement. A TIFIA loan is allowing LADOTD to accelerate delivery of the project.
Highway 3241 is a three-phase project which will create a four-lane highway from the intersection of Louisiana Highway 40/41 in Bush to Interstate 12 in St. Tammany Parish. The first two phases have already been let for bid and contractors have been secured. The third phase is expected to go out for bid in 2023.
The first phase will be between Highway 40/41 and Louisiana Highway 435. The second phase will be between Highway 435 and Louisiana Highway 36. The third phase will be between Highway 36 and Interstate 12.
The LA 3241 project was originally part of the state's Transportation Infrastructure Model for Economic Development or TIMED program that encompassed 16 projects statewide.
The TIMED program began in 1989 following voter approval of a 4-cent increase to the state's gasoline tax. Louisiana accelerated the program later through the sale of bonds. The LA 3241 project is the 15th TIMED project to move forward.

that project essentially doesn't do much immediately. 434 is already there and an interstate connection point heading east from abita.
