The City of Wichita plans to spend millions of dollars to pave more than 150 streets in the city. Its first priority is the streets around Wichita schools. One dirt road is about to get a facelift is Lilac Lane between Pike and Morris. Construction on the dirt road is expected to start on October 30th. The 10-year project will cost taxpayers $35 million. And, it’s making those who live along Lilac Lane very happy. “It’s going to be a lot better for the simple fact that my dog for instance him, he likes to go on roads and he doesn’t like the dirt going up in his paw pads, so it’s going to be a lot safer for him,” said Autumn Laguna who lives on Lilac Lane.
