It may well be that they're still fine-tuning the operation of everything, or that they holding back on more nuanced operation of the signals until they've put the finishing touches on everything and can get rid of all the construction slow zone restrictions which might mess that stuff up. But I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be because the sensors aren't ready yet.

They are talking about sensors approaching the on-ramps. All the sensors on the new section were already installed.
