Location & Wait Time
As a convenience for motorists, Air Care Colorado maintains "real time" (updates approximately every 20 minutes) estimates of the expected wait time at each inspection facility.
Current wait times are listed on the maps page on this website. Scroll down to see the map.
NO DIESEL TESTING.
LOW PROFILE RIMS & OVERSIZED TIRES - Please note that front-wheel and all-wheel drive vehicles with low-profile rim sizes 17-inches-or-larger in diameter or vehicles with wheel sizes larger than 34 inches must be tested on special dynamometers capable of testing vehicles with these unusual features. Please take your vehicle to the Sheridan, Boulder, Ken Caryl or Fort Collins stations for inspection. These are the only stations in the program area equipped with specialized dynamometers that can test these vehicles.
Avoid waiting. Mid to late afternoons are the least busy times. High volume times to always avoid are Mondays, the first business day after ANY holiday, and the last few days of the month.
Wait Times DO NOT INCLUDE TIME OUTSIDE OF THE TICKET GATE. Estimated times are based ONLY from the time a ticket is taken from the gate.
Note: Please keep in mind that the wait times are ESTIMATIONS ONLY. The wait times are updated approximately every 20 minutes.
