To combat the rising number of coronavirus cases happening throughout the state of Colorado, local Boulder County health officials have established two drive-thru testing sites in mountain towns.

The two locations are in Lyons and Nederland. Both open later this week and will run through the end of the year, according to a press release.

“Testing is important in identifying and stopping the spread of COVID-19 disease,” said Chris Campbell, Boulder county Public Health emergency manager. “We hope having testing available in the peak-to-peak area will make it easier for residents in our mountain communities to access the service.”

The Lyons site will be in the parking lot of the Church Of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints at 200 2nd Court, every Friday beginning Oct. 30, from 1:30 p.m. to 3 p.m.

Nederland will host their drive-thru testing at the community center at 750 Highway 72 N, and will be held every Thursday beginning Oct. 29, from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.
