The Village at Castle Pines boasts an active and involved neighborhood. Several hundred members of the Homes Association were in
Castle Pines Emergency Services (CPES) vehicles are equipped with red and blue emergency lights and sirens to allow officers to respond to fire alarms, medical alarms, and other emergency calls for service within the Village. The Douglas County Sheriff certifies the department to use emergency lights and sirens to respond to calls. Colorado traffic code requires drivers to yield the right of way to emergency vehicles when their emergency equipment is activated. Please remember to yield the right of way to responding units from the Sheriff’s Office, the South Metro Fire District, and Emergency Services.
CPES patrol officers will provide courtesy rides within the Village should residents be concerned that they cannot drive themselves safely home. We will be there with fast, friendly service to anywhere in the Village.
CPES monitors and enforces traffic and parking in the Village. Please use caution, be aware and obey the posted speed limits. In most areas, the speed limit is 25 mph, though conditions and sight lines often mean slower speeds may be appropriate.
To raise awareness of speed, a “Speed Cart” may be placed in various locations throughout the Village to assist drivers in monitoring their speed. Notices of Violation (NOV) will be issued when warranted. Please note that ES uses speed monitoring devices in their patrol vehicles. It is the policy of CPES to remain visible at all times when conducting speed monitoring activities.
When the Village was designed, it was planned with winding, resort-style roads that provide maximum privacy. That also means there are blind and obscured views. As such, although the posted speed limit is 25 mph, in many cases that’s not going to feel like a safe speed and we encourage drivers to use judgement in driving slower than the posted limit when warranted.
