I'm sure the city would be open to it. The big argument for not constricting the roads would be from the state and suburbs as the routes are state thoroughfares and their constriction would likely negatively affect passers through while benefitting the neighborhoods directly adjacent. Even I'm a bit cautious about it as I'd hate to see any negative unforeseen consequences.
I grew up along one of the roads, so I know they are state roads. I have not seen any serious push ever by the city for this, which is where this has to start. I don't think anyone in any position of power, here, has ever even thought it a possibility, which is I guess kind of my main point. We can't even start thinking about talking with MDOT until there is some movement from locals on this.
