Mountain Brook Homecoming Parade: What To Know

MOUNTAIN BROOK, AL — Mountain Brook faces Hoover this week, in what is already anuge game for the Spartans. What makes it even bigger is that the game also celebrates Homecoming for Mountain Brook.

The Homecoming parade is scheduled to begin at 2:30 p.m. Friday. The Mountain Brook Police Department this week issued some reminders regarding the event, namely that vehicular traffic on Church Street will be significantly impacted from 2 p.m. until approximately 3:30 p.m.

In an effort to increase the safety of both spectators and participants, fencing will be installed in front of City Hall on Church Street beginning at approximately 1:30 p.m. Once the fencing has been placed, any vehicles parked in the public parking spaces on Church Street will be blocked in and unable to leave until after the parade has ended and the fencing has been removed.

Beginning at approximately 2:15 p.m., all traffic will be stopped from entering the parade route. Vehicles will not be able to turn north onto Church Street from Montevallo Road.

Once the parade is concluded, Church Street will remain closed until the fencing can be removed; however, traffic will be able to use both Vine and Oak Streets as a detour.

The parade route will be as follows:

Parade begins on the Overbrook side of Mountain Brook Baptist Church, right on Montevallo Road, left onto Church Street, left on Euclid Avenue, left on Dan Watkins Drive where it concludes.
