Coaldale Sub-Station Update

 

The Coaldale Substation (AVADS)


 

CURRENT STATUS: Coaldale Station (AVADS): 5/27/25

11998 CR 45, Coaldale, CO 81222

AVAD has erected a 40 'x 60' dispatch and training facility located at the intersection of County Road 45 and Hamilton Creek Road. AVADS is in full operation.  We have one ambulance stationed at the Coaldale location, and another ambulance at Howard Volunteer Fire Station. Spreading out the availability of ambulances allows for improved response times for our volunteers as the responders on call can pick a location that's closest to them so they can arrive to an emergency location faster.

AVADS has proudly dedicated a large space of this facility for continued volunteer training, and also for community CPR/AED, and first aid classes. Monthly, our volunteers engage in skills refreshers on varying topics and continued education. 

Lex Wayson, the Ambulance District Manger, is staffed at the Coaldale Station four days a week to manage the day to day operation needs of AVAD. While this is not a 24/7 staffed facility, please always remember to dial 911 for any emergency.

 

Coming soon... AVAD will be hosting an Open House at the Coaldale Station where we would like to invite the community for food, ice cream, meet your volunteers, and tour our facility. Date: TBD

A document we have been waiting for - the site plan - has finally been completed and "stamped" by the land surveyor. This document "should" complete the packet of necessary information the county needs to approve the project so construction can finally begin.
