I know the Jefferson project involves the replacement of at least some of the roadbed. And of course it's concrete so they patch it before they overlay with asphalt. But it seems like they've been at it for a year by now.

A competent entity could create a two mile road out of a patch of wilderness in less than two years.

The timeline is absurd. Which particular contractor is getting rich off change orders on this?

Depends on the owner and how good the drawings are.

Not the contractors fault the owner doesn’t do their due diligence.

This actually tends to be a lot easier than rebuilding an existing, heavily used and developed thoroughfare. Assuming the terrain isn’t something crazy.
