Just looking at the route the A12 and A13 don't really pose that much of a threat to cyclists, it's the rest that's the real hazard and given the traffic that they'll encounter and the distance travelled it amazes me they couldn't find a more suitable loading alternative.
At the end of the day, the Shard will be built and from a construction point of view that foundation does need to be laid in the most effective manner possible. The logisitics of the operation are clearly very lacking though and that's where the authorities really need to be hauled up on this.
