Lenexa’s street network consists of approximately 650 lane miles of roads and 23 miles of hiking/biking trails, all of which the Streets Division maintains. Some examples of street maintenance include pothole patching, broken curb repair, mill/overlay and micro/slurry sealing.

In a recent study, residents were asked to rank the importance of various issues within Lenexa for the Vision 2030 Plan, and of the respondents, 96% rated the maintenance of roads and infrastructure as the most important issue. The Street Division staff continues to provide services that meet or exceed the citizens’ and traveling public’s expectations.
