Code related to this issue has just been checked in; DCoder wrote in revision 396:
Fixed issue #794 - reenabled Urban Areas checkbox, generation works now. Generation uses the following:
Structures: CABUNK01, CABUNK02, CAARMY01, CAARMY02, CAARMY03, CAARMY04, CACHIG03, CANEWY01, CANEWY14, CANWY09, CANWY26, CANWY25, CATEXS07
Vehicles: TRUCKA, TRUCKB, COP, EUROC, SUVW, SUVB, FTRK, AMBU
Infantry: CIV1, CIV2, CIV3, CIVA, CIVB, CIVC
Customization of the list will be implemented in the future (see bug:219).
Fixed issue #796 - disabled paved road curve usage. In TS these tiles were indeed road ends, but they got repainted and the RMG wasn't updated to not use them.
Fixed issue #815 - Apparently these issues don't happen anymore.

Urban Areas work fine for me for Temperate.
For the other theatres the urban areas appear on the map but not ingame... I don't know if this is intended.

This has been discussed in other related issues... for now it has been decided that this fluke will be left for Ares 0.2.

BTW, you had this error with snow maps too? I didn't have any problems getting urban areas on snow maps, only theatre that seems to have this issue (for me) is desert.

Same here. On most theatres it works fine for me.

Further testing.

Snow - Both minimap and ingame.
Temperate - working. Both minimap and ingame.
Desert - this time it worked on both minimap and ingame. But it seems to be random. They showed up on minimap only previous time I tried urban areas with desert.

It appears not to work on archipelago type random maps at all from my tests, though it gets drawn on the mini map for desert in some occasions.

I noticed that it works properly on continent type maps for all theatres, but previews for inland maps show the urban areas in the wrong places.

Something I recently observed on a medium continent snow map. The urban areas appeared correctly when first generated the map and then played it immediately. However after finishing that battle and selecting to play a second game on the same map, ingame the urban areas were missing (but still on the generated minimap). I'm sure with further testing this will happen with more map types.
