I'm planning to go to a conference in Wichita later this year. Can anyone tell me if there's a shortcut to walk to Rock Rd from the hotels around E. Corporate Hills Dr & S. Webb Rd?

I know that there's a path around the pond/lake that's behind the Wichita Marriott, but I'm wondering if there's a path beyond that as an alternative to walking up S. Webb Rd. & E. Douglas Ave to get to the mall & restaurants on Rock.

Also, it looks like pedestrians can't get to E. Kellogg from S. Webb but they can get there from Rock - is that right? It looks like I would have to walk along S. Webb, E. Douglas and Rock if I wanted to walk to Ross and TJ Maxx.

Is LOTS of road construction right there on Kellogg/HWY 54/400 right now....It's a mess so wear sneakers. Is no good cab service and bus wouldn't be worth it. Isn't even okay spot to bicycle right now...would probably walk a bike right there...Try to skip rush hour. Are no restaurants near the Marriott but I'm sure there's room service available or pizza delivery guy would be happy to come to lobby as it's nice hotel. Could hop the bus to grocery store which is Walmart at Greenwich/Kellogg or Dillions (Kroger) at Harry/Webb. Bus would be worth it to hit Rock/Douglas maybe otherwise it's 1.5 miles from Marriott to Towne East. TJMaxx and Ross are only 8 blocks from Marriott in Eastgate which doesn't have many restaurants anymore either....Wait for cab is 90 minutest to 3 hours and have to call, cannot hale cab here. Bus does pickup at Webb and Kellogg probably...
