There are a lot of scenarios here and you have given very little information. I am not an attorney but generally speaking either the construction company or the other driver would be At Fault.
Depending on the severity of the accident it could take a court to determine fault. Was the worker waving you to stop or to go? Was the worker properly trained? Was he using the proper signalling devices?
Was the other driver also waived into the intersection or did he fail to heed traffic control? Are there any personal injury claims?
If you have collision insurance then it may be best to file a claim with your carrier and let them fight it out over the repairs. Your general liability will protect you from any claims by the other party up to your limits.

You are about to be struck from behind at a stop sign what should you do?
If it is safe to do so (no approaching traffic and/or traffic in intersection), move out of the way.If not, prepare for the hit, as it is better to be hit, than to cause a collision (from an insurance/fault stand-point).-Move into your set, and head against the head rest. This will help reduce any possible whip lash.

Is the car driver at fault if he hits bicyclist in crosswalk if bicyclist is going against the flow of traffic in VA?
Most of the time, it'll be the fault of the driver. Regardless of whether or not a person is in a crosswalk, you're required to avoid them to the best of your ability. I suppose the driver might be let off lightly if the vehicle itself were found to have a fault that caused the accident.
