A teen was injured in a e-moto versus truck collision in Wellington on Wednesday morning.

On September 2, 2026 around 8:40 a.m., LCSO deputies, UCHealth EMS, and Wellington Fire responded to a crash near 3rd Street and Roosevelt Avenue. Based on information gathered at the scene, they learned that a teen on an e-moto (dirtbike-style electric minibike) collided with a Dodge Ram 2500 pickup truck. The teen was transported to an area hospital with moderate injuries. Fortunately, the individual was wearing a helmet and is expected to recover. The pickup truck driver remained on scene.

The investigation is ongoing. Anyone who witnessed the crash should contact Wellington Corporal Eric Schultz at 970-498-5551.

We are extremely grateful to community members who called 911 and stopped to assist the teen. We also appreciate the work of first responders who arrived in less than 2 minutes and provided immediate medical care.

Traffic safety is everyone's responsibility. Whether people are driving, walking, or riding, we urge all travelers to abide by traffic laws, follow signs and signals, stay aware of their surroundings, and look out for each other on the road. Deputies actively work to educate, enforce, and promote traffic safety in our community, but we need everyone to play their part!

❗8/28 CONSTRUCTION UPDATE: ASPHALT REMOVAL TO START 8/31❗

Coulson Excavating will start removing asphalt from the work zone on the south side of Cleveland Avenue on Monday, August 31.

A milling machine will move down the middle of the work zone, grinding up the existing asphalt and moving it to a truck for removal. This means the Cleveland Avenue work zone will be active starting Monday.

Direct access to Downtown businesses will not be impacted by this stage of the project.

Neither will the existing traffic flow through Downtown Wellington:

• Intersections at 1st Street, 3rd Street and 6th Street will remain open
• Intersections at 2nd Street, 4th Street and 5th Street will remain closed

Parking is available:

• Between Soul Squared Brewing (3740 W. Cleveland Ave.) and Rose & Co. (3734 W. Cleveland Ave.)
• Between the Larimer County Sheriff's Office (3735 W. Cleveland Ave.) and North Poudre Irrigation (3729 W. Cleveland Ave.)
• On side streets north of the north-side alley and south of the south-side alley

Drivers can avoid the construction zone by using:

6th Street for north/south travel
• Harrison Avenue for east/west travel
• Roosevelt Avenue for east/west travel

STORM DRAIN INSTALLATION UPDATE
Crews working to install the drainage pipe as part of the project’s storm drainage infrastructure improvements turned the corner August 28 from 5th Street to Cleveland Avenue.

WHAT'S NEXT
Crews will continue to prepare Cleveland Avenue for storm drainage infrastructure installation and streetscape improvements. Work also continues on 5th Street with the installation of storm inlets and preparation for a mill and overlay that will bring the surface pavement to a finished product.

CONSTRUCTION ZONE REMINDER
The only people allowed inside construction zones for this project are those authorized to be there by Coulson Excavating. Residents and visitors are reminded to stay out of construction zones when moving around Downtown Wellington, not to move any cones or barriers in or around a construction zone, and to follow all instructions given by traffic control workers. This includes e-bike and e-scooter riders.

STAY UPDATED
Any major schedule changes will be shared with the public as soon as they are available.

The latest information about the project is always available at WellingtonColorado.gov/608/Cleveland-Ave-Construction-Project.
