Cobb adopts Dynamic Speed Display Sign Policy

More digital speed signs will be seen around Cobb County.

The Cobb County Board of Commissioners recently approved the Dynamic Speed Display Sign Policy. At $5,000 each, 20 of these permanent signs will be installed on certain two-lane roads for a $100,000 total. The Cobb County Department of Transportation now has seven portable digital speed signs.

Since 2013, Cobb DOT also has been conducting a pilot program with these signs at five permanent locations.
