Two Rollover Crashes Close Parts of Powers Boulevard in Colorado Springs

The first closure at Powers and Constitution cleared after roughly two hours, with a later crash near Platte prompting an extrication and a hospital transport.

Overview

  • Police shut southbound Powers and both directions of Constitution at the Powers–Constitution intersection for a rollover crash.
  • The Stetson Hills substation said that intersection reopened around 7 p.m. with no injuries reported.
  • A separate rollover just south near East Platte led firefighters to extricate one person who was then taken to a hospital.
  • Multiple agencies responded, including Colorado Springs Fire and Cimarron Hills Fire, and traffic was diverted at S. Carefree Circle.
  • Authorities have not released a definitive cause, though a police substation said the second crash was likely the result of a T-bone collision.
