as long as it's safe and there are no peds around, i sometimes hop onto the pavement rather than risk a close pass through roadworks. (no doubt the drivers are shaking their heads at me, but they'd likely be doing the same for 'holding them up' if i was on the road 😂)
Och I just have to accept that I do some bastard manoeuvres to stay safe with traffic. Hopefully I earn enough good traffic karma by waiting at the vast majority of lights even with clear junctions (bare minimum I know, but still).
