Urbana has grand plans for Main Street

URBANA – Main Street could be transformed into the linchpin of the city's bicycle network if Urbana is successful in landing a $1 million state grant.

The city is hoping to undertake a $2.3 million update, two years from now, of a 2-mile stretch of Main Street, from Cedar Street, just west of downtown, to Scottswood Drive on the east.
