The Tuscaloosa Branch of ASCE hosted the 2021 Winter Meeting of the Alabama Section on Wednesday, March 10, 2021 at The Cypress Pavilion, located on the northern bank of the Black Warrior River near downtown Tuscaloosa. The Cypress Pavilion provided a beautiful view of the Black Warrior River while over ninety (90) participants enjoyed a great day of learning and fellowship with engineers and industry professionals.  The Winter Meeting agenda included educational presentations on a range of Civil Engineer related topics followed by a tour of the Tuscaloosa County Precast Bridge Yard. We are very thankful to the sponsors and exhibitors that made the day a huge success!!

Next year, the Huntsville Branch of ASCE will be hosting the 2022 Winter Meeting, so be on the lookout this fall for more information!!
