I'm a firm believer that if your "straightforward", "simple" street layout requires a 1 minute instructional video to try and explain what the ambiguous signs and all that paint on the road wants you to do, it's not nearly as straightforward and simple as you imagine it is.

Two stage right turns for cyclists have been introduced on Summerhall. This will make it safer and easier for cyclists to turn right onto Hope Park Terrace and from the opposite direction on Summerhall, right onto Melville Drive.

I think I’d just use the advanced green light to make sure I crossed the junction in time. Make the green long enough and everyone could do the same before the cars start?

If they can't/ won't do a proper protected junction then that's my personal preferred way of making an improvement on the cheap - of course adding 5s on to the traffic light signal cycle is probably anathema to a council active transport "improvement"
