Crash Data Dashboards
Transportation safety is a top priority for Colorado. CDOT Traffic Safety & Engineering Services developed performance dashboards displaying all reporting public roadway crashes in Colorado to better understand numbers, causes, types, and locations of crashes in order to develop effective countermeasures and meet performance targets.
Disclaimer: Colorado traffic crashes as presented in the dashboard are approximate and subject to change. The most current and official number of traffic fatalities in Colorado can be found on NHTSA's Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) site and the Colorado Traffic Fatalities dashboard.
