Use CF_BLOCK from the Tag Gallery.
This is the tag's description as written by the author:
"This tag simply stops the execution of the current template for the
specified number of seconds. No loops or temporary files. Does not consume
ANY server resources.
It uses only two nested CFLOCKs that form a deadlock for the given time. The
page execution stops without any ColdFusion activity during the blocking
period"

Try using getTickCount:
THIS SHOULD CREATE A 2 SECOND TIMER!!
<CFSET tickBegin = GetTickCount()>
<CFLOOP FROM="1" TO = "1000000000000" index = "index">
<CFSET tickEnd = GetTickCount()>
<CFIF tickEnd - tickBegin IS 2000>
<CFBREAK> OR YOU COULD PUT THE CFLOCATION RIGHT HERE, INSTEAD
</CFIF>
</CFLOOP>

I use a CFLOOP to create a delay.
<CFLOOP Index="Timer" From="1" to="15000" STEP="1">
</cfloop>
There must be a better way, but I haven't found it yet.
