Recently yours truly was pointed to a Municipal Code which certifies the right of the public to move about freely and accessibly through sidewalks belonging to the People of the City of Los Angeles. See the document for yourself below for details.
Of course, this doesn’t guarantee pedestrians full protection from a person or entity or group’s very capability to impede the right of way, but it does ensure that people have grounds for protest whilst hampered by such impediments.
