I would bet that aside that the pole is new, they just didn't want to spend the money on any subsurface changes or placing that post in a new spot. New pole, same intersection subsurface layout.
It was likely the wiring underground or possibly other buried infrastructure. It's inconvenient, but I'd hope cyclists have the sense to not drive into the pole to begin with.
More a concern of it being a space impediment when there are also pedestrians or people waiting for a crossing you can no longer get around. To say nothing of the fact that every MUT crossing seems to get the same ped only grade slope to make your wrists suffer.
