If you're referring to Exit 5 to 5A twinning the answer is one overpass was built at Bowater Mersey / Hiking Trail Road to continue to provide access to the dams to the north. Most of the remaining lands along the corridor are crown land so no access is needed. The couple of logging roads that ended at the highway have other access points so they are now blocked off.
NSTIR tends to build service roads in the woods alongside freeways. They are usually not open to the public so quite often they have gates or signage. They run from the property that requires access to the closest interchange/overpass.
For Exit 5A to 6 there are a couple of intersections that need to be removed. One is next to exit 6 so I assume an access road will be built to Mill Lake Road. The other has a handful of residences on it and is a through intersection so I assume a underpass will be installed presumably in the metal culvert style.
