URBANA -- New signs are up to show where you can no longer park. They were installed on one side of Urbana Avenue, Maple Street and Grove Street. It's just one block between Oregon and Washington streets.

City leaders say they made the change to help firefighters who reported having a hard time responding to some calls. They say it was hard to maneuver around parked cars on those streets. They hope this new effort will solve the problem.
