Narrative:
I was given taxi instructions which are not the normal because of numerous construction projects on the airport. When I realized I was slightly crossing the active runway and saw a landing medium large transport, I immediately crossed the runway and the medium large transport initiated a go around. I believe there would have been no accident but I have no excuse for entering the active runway.
