Building motorways destroys permeability--old road alignments are re-purposed for these crap roads, old connections severed. The organisers undoubtedly saw that they had to make an exception from their usual rules in this spot, as there's no way of getting through without travelling some distance on that road. It's clearly well-researched and a sensible move.
