A "bikes use ped signal" sign on the existing ped signal head would probably be enough for signalization, especially when paired with a reminder "left turn yield on green" sign for people turning from Third to Main. I rode through on the weekend and the ped signal was enough. I can't remember if there was a leading pedestrian interval, but that would be ideal to give cyclists heading straight a head start on people turning left.
The path itself is very wide and raised up off the main travel lane by several inches. The pinch point is still wide enough to ride through at a decent commuting speed, and hopefully whenever the tired plaza is renovated that giant block could be removed.
The transition from Main Street onto the contraflow lane isn't especially clear, it looks like you are supposed to use the raised crossing to merge onto the concrete triangle island and pick your way through pedestrian traffic before entering the lane.
