Mesa County DMV offices temporarily adjust services during system upgrade

February 2, 2026

Mesa County Department of Motor Vehicles offices will temporarily adjust services in mid-February as the Colorado Division of Motor Vehicles completes a statewide software upgrade designed to improve customer service and system reliability.

Beginning Saturday, Feb. 14, online DMV transactions and kiosk services will be unavailable through Monday, Feb. 16, while the new system is implemented. All Mesa County DMV offices will close at 3 p.m. on Feb. 13.

All Mesa County DMV offices will be closed Monday, Feb. 16, for the Presidents Day holiday, and closed Tuesday, Feb. 17, to allow staff time for system preparation and training.

On Wednesday, Feb. 18, the main DMV office, 200 S. Spruce St., will reopen by appointment only. Appointments will help ensure customers are served efficiently as staff transition to the upgraded system. The Clifton DMV office will be closed.  

All offices will be fully open Thursday, Feb. 19. Customers should plan for longer wait times that day as employees continue becoming familiar with the new software.

"This upgrade is an investment in better service for our customers," said Mesa County Clerk and Recorder Bobbie Gross. "We appreciate the public's patience as our staff completes training and works to ensure a smooth transition."

Residents are encouraged to complete time-sensitive transactions before Feb. 13 when possible and to check the Clerk and Recorder's website for updates and appointment information.
