Have they tried not making their entire metro a grid of unwalkable 4-lane surface highways? No, they have not. Even on the Strip pedestrians are second-class citizens. This is the city that turned their main pedestrian tourist attraction into a literal F1 track.

That should build pedestrian tunnels. Helps keep the heat out. And the cars.

They do have a network of tunnels. It's full of cars. (That might have already been your joke, sorry if it was)
