Why does the design take 5 years? Seems like it could be done in 1 or 2. Do they not have the funding to build it right away?

The final IMJR for the I-90 Exit 59 DDI project, which started in early 2021 and is currently ongoing, was approved in 2016. It seems they like to procrastinate a bit with some of these larger projects.

Interesting, seems kind of bass ackwards to me. I would think they could save money on inflation if they do it sooner.

State government in SD works at its own pace, unless the issue becomes a political football. For instance, there's a bridge out west of Spearfish on a wildlife area that partially washed out (safe for pedestrians and ATVs but not cars) in ~2012 or so. Despite calls to fix the bridge, Game Fish & Parks did nothing until they got called out at a public meeting about a proposed state park (the comment was something along the lines of "Why should we trust GF&P to manage this park when they can't fix a bridge in 5 years?"). The bridge was fixed within the next month.
