The Foxfield gates were installed as a traffic control mechanism to help limit the excessive cut through traffic in the Town of Foxfield. Residents play an important role in helping keep the gates operational and effective. Below are some guidelines that will help mitigate any issues.

Gate Protocol:
- Tailgating is not allowed, and in fact, the arms are timed for one vehicle. In order to avoid damaging the gate arms, please do not attempt or encourage tailgating.
- Please do not manually try to raise or move the gate arms. Manually moving the arms will cause the arms not to work, and the arms will have to be reset by a trained team member.
- Please ensure all delivery teams know about the gates and use alternative routes during the hours the gates are in operation (M-F 6am-9am and 4pm to 7pm).
- Gate tags must be affixed to the windshield, if they are not the tags may not function properly.
Report an Issue:
- (preferred method) Text the phrase gate issue to 720-262-2265.
- Call 303-680-1544
- Email to clerk@townoffoxfield.com
FAQ:
- What do I do if I see another car unable to get through the gates?
- If the vehicle has a gate tag please report the gate issues.
- If the vehicle does not have a gate tag, then they must use the turnarounds and find another non-gated exit on Arapahoe Road. There is a QR code on the new gate signs that provides a map of the area.
- Can I use the keypad?
- No. The keypad is for emergency vehicles only.
Attaching RFID windshield gate tags:
The windshield glass acts as an antenna for these tags. This document shows a number of different options. If mounting your tag in the upper left as noted in the instructions you received with your tags will not work on your vehicle, these options may help:
If you have a metal oxide windshield -- most vehicles do not -- this document lists which vehicles do and where to mount the tag on those vehicles. The easiest mounting location for all the listed vehicles is on the front left headlight, covered with clear packing tape.
