Isn't most of the point of computers driving us so they can react to things we can't? I dont know why that bit would be turned off... Seems seriously problematic. Secondly, that looks like a really bad place to be pushing your bike at night.

Right turn on red was mostly implemented to avoid having cars idling waiting for a timer-only light to turn.
Between modern cars with fast engine stop/start and modern sensor technology which triggers lights when there is no opposing traffic, there are a lot of good reasons to remove that rule again.
Now tell that to random people and they will get angry and upset and wish you harm.
It seems like the problem isn’t the lack of bicycle infrastructure, it’s the ingrained culture.
We need to get rid of that rule now that the justification for it no longer exists.
