Cycle lane blocked by roadworks sign

Roadworks sign blocking northbound cycle lane on Gasson St between Coleridge St & Wordsworth St. Between this sign and another for southbound traffic (located between Kingsley St & Wordsworth St), there doesn’t appear to be any activity underway that varies the normal condition of the road, so I don’t understand why it is even out there endangering cyclists. Even if it should be there, why not place sign on the wide footpath, which would still be visible to drivers, allow cyclists to pass by in the cycle lane and leave enough room for pedestrians to pass safely?
