What Is Essential Travel?

Following the Stay-at-Home Order can be difficult, as figuring out what consists of “essential travel” can feel subjective. Review the Stay-at-Home Order, which can be found here. Generally, “essential travel” is defined to include “travel to care for elderly, minors, dependents, persons with disabilities, or other vulnerable persons,” as well as “travel required by law enforcement or court order.” Governor Polis has specifically stated that travel  to facilitate parenting time exchanges, including picking up and dropping off, is allowed.
