Hollywood Boulevard, Crystal Springs Drive, Green Street in Pasadena, even all of Wilshire Boulevard — readers want to see cars off these L.A. streets

stretching from Grand Park to the Ace Hotel offers the greatest potential for a car-free zone.

A car-free Broadway makes downtown more attractive to pedestrians, tourists and businesses. The nearby 7th Street, Pershing Square, Civic Center and soon-to-open Historic Broadway Metro stations provide easy access from much of Los Angeles. Allowing only buses to travel through would help public transit as well in a similar way to Market Street in San Francisco.

Pasadena has lots of car traffic, and I truly believe this could be alleviated by more dedicated bike lanes. These conversions have been painfully slow in Pasadena, however, despite growing numbers of citizens pushing for it.I am happy to see a road in Griffith Park closed to cars, especially after the tragic death of a cyclist on another road. Golden Gate Park in San Francisco recently closed the main east-west road to cars as well, making for a safer, more pedestrian-friendly environment.

As has been demonstrated in California, across America and around the world, public spaces free of motor vehicles have increased tourism and helped to prevent injury and death, resulting in more welcoming environments for visitors and local families.
