Answer

My officials are exploring options to purchase the land by agreement, therefore the vesting process has not yet commenced.

Construction of the road can only begin once the land has been purchased or vested, with this process likely to take up to a year to complete. As such, I cannot confirm a date for the commencement of construction.
