I've ridden a lot here and you won't see other bikes on most stretches of road, so that doesn't mean much.
I don't recall where the construction was, but am pretty sure it was somewhere between Rzhev and Velikiye Luki. At most of the construction sites they have traffic lights directing traffic; if the light is red when you approach, ride up to the front and when it turns green you can zip right through the construction sites, getting stuck behind a truck is a nightmare because they go about 10kph.
