The city of Urbana Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Commission will review the city's 2016 Bicycle Master Plan tonight at the Urbana City Building.

The plan is under final review by various city commissions. If approved in its current version, the plan would increase bike path access in low-income neighborhoods, make bike storage more accessible near businesses, and improve overall bike trail connectivity, in addition to other improvements.

The commission will also prepare to discuss the enforcement of traffic laws and commission bylaws at an upcoming meeting.

The meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. in the City Council Chambers, 400 S. Vine St.
