IMHO the only construction workers... would be deconstructing a decommissioned telescope before the TMT is built on a new pad with more road building.
And therein lies the problem.
You would accept a solution as long as it doesn't allow one additional telescope to be placed on the summit. Others, like the protestors, don't want to see even one telescope on the mountain.
It's easier to find an exo-planet light years away orbiting comfortably in the Goldilocks Zone, than to find a Goldilocks Zone in Hawaii where both TMT supporters and protestors can exist together, and everything is j.u.s.t right.
