I have a road center line with thousands of road segments. I would like to union all segments with the same Fename(street name) into just one line feature. Is this possible and if it is how can this be done?

I found the "Merge Feature" but I would like to merge all the lines that have the same FENAME. The "merge Features" just merges the selected feature, is there not a way to merge like this but by attribute field?

How did you use the Dissolve tool to do this? Did you do an intersection of the lines first?

Yes I realize this is a 5 year old post. 😃 Just curious.
