Lomb Avenue is a major connecting street in Birmingham's Arlington-West End and Rising-West Princeton neighborhoods. It splits off from Montevallo Road Southwest as 6th Street Southwest and runs north, then northwest past Princeton Baptist Medical Center and over Valley Creek to Bessemer Road (U.S. Highway 11) at Fair Park.
