NEW GATE ACCESS CONTROL PROCEDURES Effective Sept. 4, the access control procedures for visitors entering Fort Carson are changing. All personnel not in possession of a Department of Defense issued photo identification card will be required to process through Gate 1 (Nelson Boulevard and CO Highway 115). The number 1 (far left) traffic lane at Gate 1 will be reserved for DOD ID card holders with visitor processing taking place in the remaining lanes. All visitors 18 years old or older will have their ID electronically scanned and vetted against law enforcement data bases to determine eligibility to enter Fort Carson, and their vehicles are subject to inspection prior to being granted access. Gate 3 will continue to process commercial vehicles with the number 1 (far left) traffic lane reserved for DOD ID card holders. DoD ID card holders are authorized access through any gate, any lane. While the Trusted Traveler program is in effect, DoD ID card holders are reminded that all personnel who have been issued a DOD ID, and guests 18 years old or older should have in their possession their ID as we reserve the right to conduct 100 percent ID checks at any time. Companies who enroll in the RAPIDGate ™ program are still authorized access through any gate. For more information, contact the Directorate of Emergency Services, Security and Access Control Division at 526-5543.
