Trying to handle failover at Layer 2 is the wrong way to design redundant PTP RF between routers.

Migrate to routed and use OSPF for failover.

If you still need VLANs, you can use MPLS/VPLS

If you want to use all of the bandwidth between two routers and load balance unequally, use an OSPF Transit Fabric
