City closes road in Five Points South

Birmingham, AL — The City of Birmingham will close Woodcrest Road in Redmont Park/Five Points South tomorrow, March 9, due to concerns over roadway settlement along a steep slope. The City has recently contacted a geotechnical firm to investigate this location. In an abundance of caution, it has been recommended to close the road while the firm conducts a thorough investigation. Over the next several weeks, there will be a series of monitors to determine the condition. Upon the discovery of the actual cause, more details regarding next steps will be announced.
