Not with out rebuilding every major city built in the last 70 years, some city's like Chicago New York, ect this can be done with minimum relative pain, but if we look at L.A. the great Satan of bad city design the original sin for America. La would be a nightmare to fix but it still could be done but it would require a massive contraction of the city into a more dense downtown area that gets rebuilt out while displacing everyone in the suburbs into those newly built 3-5 story down town area think Spanish or soviet micro districts.
One solution I though of is taking LA's very large Bulvards and adding 24/7 light tram access down the center then then create flex pedestrian delivery vechial only lanes over the current car lanes on both sides basicly make it so you cant drop off inside of the districts unless your a delivery van or truck or emergency vehicle.
Would have to rezone to punish car ownership which ok yeah I can get behind that.
