To the person asking about Bessemer Road, on a current map of the Birmingham area there are three road with the word Bessemer in them. They are: Bessemer Avenue which is located in the Roosevelt City area of Birmingham. It is a street off of Highway 11. Bessemer Cut-Off Road which starts in the city of Bessemer and goes to Hoover. It runs West to East and is Highway 150. The other one is Bessemer Highway which starts in the City of Bessemer, goes North and even though the name changes several times, eventually ends in Birmingham. I suspect this is the old Bessemer Road. It goes through the City of Lipscomb, Brownsville and then turns into Jefferson Avenue. Finally there is the Birmingham Bessemer Super Highway which is Highway 11. Hope this helps. Irma J. Roy
