The Birmingham Jefferson County Port Authority (BJCPA) has broken ground on a 25,000-square-foot warehouse at the Port Birmingham terminal in Mulga.

The facility, designed to store cold-rolled steel coils, is part of BJCPA’s first public-private partnership with Watco and aims to enhance the capabilities along Alabama’s inland waterways.

“The warehouse development project at Port Birmingham exemplifies the power of collaboration between local, county and state government,” said Mahari McTier, BJCPA chairman. “This catalyst project for the BJCPA will begin to position us as a key economic development engine in the region, and we look forward to playing a vital role in the growth and prosperity of the region.”
