Gates 5, 6 and 19 will experience new hours and closures starting Aug. 1 due to staffing and resourcing reductions
Gate 5 will operate seven days a week from 5 a.m. to 1 p.m. Gates 6 will operate Monday through Friday from 5 a.m. to 1 p.m. Gate 19 will be closed until further notice. Fort Carson staff reviewed months of traffic analytics, resource data and spoke with subject matter experts to conclude the best course of action for the installation. During closure times, community members are encouraged to utilize gates 1, 3, 4 and 20 as alternate access points.
“We understand this change may cause inconvenience throughout the installation. We appreciate the community’s patience and understanding as we manage all available resources,” said Col. Erik Oksenvaag, Fort Carson garrison commander.
Fort Carson leadership constantly evaluates mission requirements and available resources to maximize efficiency and productivity in the programs and services we provide the Soldiers, Families, and civilians who live, work, and train at Fort Carson.
