We're fortunate around here in that a few of the people in traffic control are avid cyclists--they are very responsive to complaints of lights that won't change for cyclists. Unfortunately, they can only make adjustments to lights that switch based on a camera sensing system. But the point is, they CAN do something about these kind-of light systems.
If you don't see a camera on top of the light, look for wires embedded in a road and angle your bike to cross over them in as many places as possible.
If your city paints bikes in the lane at the limit line, stand over them--these are the "sweetspot" for those sensors and will help trigger the light.
