Old Woodward Reconstruction Project Update - 5/7/18
Coming off a busy weekend of work which resulted in the connection to the new water main system for all businesses north of Maple, contractors are underway this week (week of May 7th) targeting sewer and storm drain work as well as water main work on both the north and south ends of the project.
 
With 25 percent of the project now completed, contractors are preparing to start similar water main connection/shutdown service work for businesses along Maple within the project work zone. More details on this process will be released once they are finalized later this week. Please watch for important updates.
 
The City encourages the public to support the merchant community by visiting your favorite locations in downtown Birmingham. Remember that parking is now free in all five of the City parking structures on weekends (Saturdays and Sundays) during construction.
