Commission adopts 30 mph speed limit on Kent Road

Cullman County Commission · August 7, 2026

Summary

The Cullman County Commission approved Resolution 2026‑37 to lower the speed limit to 30 mph on Kent Road (CR 8385) after brief public comment raising speed concerns following recent repaving.

The Cullman County Commission voted to adopt Resolution 2026‑37, changing the speed limit to 30 miles per hour on Kent Road (CR 8385). A commissioner moved to approve the resolution, the motion was seconded and the commission recorded a unanimous 'aye' vote.

A resident addressed the commission before the vote, urging officials to monitor conditions after recent repaving and noting that improved surface quality had encouraged higher speeds. A county engineer (on the record as a staff member presenting road issues) told the commission the repaving work had “increased the speed quality on these roads,” and asked the board to “watch it on the every condition.” The resolution passed without recorded dissent; the commission did not specify an effective date in the discussion.
