en español Although transit services and people’s transit needs have shifted considerably during the current COVID-19 pandemic, it is important that we continue transit planning to address congestion on County roads when everyone returns to normal life after social distancing.

How to give feedback
- Use the map to share travel origins (such as your home) and destinations (such as work, school or shopping) within the project areas.
- Take a short survey (linked in the sidebar) to tell us about you and how you might use shuttle services.
Your feedback will influence several possible projects. Feedback on Oregon City and Clackamas shuttles must be submitted by July 19. All other feedback may be submitted by July 30.
Project Overview
These new transit services are looking to make last mile connections that will enable many more people to travel all the way to work, school and other daily destinations even when they are not driving. These shuttles will help relieve congestion on County roads when everyone returns to normal life after social distancing, as they will enable critical last mile connections from other regional transit providers.
Clackamas County is looking to develop four new public transit services:
- Three shuttle services to fill gaps from TriMet stops to underserved portions of urban Clackamas — two of which will begin running by September 2020.
- A commuter service linking Oregon City, West Linn and Tualatin.
Shuttle Service Areas
- Oregon City: This project will explore implementation of a last mile shuttle to provide enhanced transit access throughout Oregon City to help residents travel all the way to work, school and other daily destinations even when they’re not driving.
- Clackamas Industrial Area: A last-mile shuttle is being explored to provide enhanced transit access to the Clackamas Industrial Area located primarily east of Interstate 205 along Highway 212. This shuttle, once implemented, will provide service between the Clackamas Town Center Transit Center and locations throughout the Clackamas Industrial Area ensuring connections to large employers in Clackamas and to Clackamas Community College.
- Oregon City, West Linn, and Tualatin: This project will conduct initial planning and explore the feasibility of implementing a future shuttle service between Oregon City, West Linn, and Tualatin to provide enhanced transportation access for all commuters with no current feasible or practical transit options along these travel routes, particularly for the transit dependent and low-income populations.
- Milwaukie: This project will conduct initial planning and expllore the feasibility of implementing a future shuttle service to International Way, the North Milwaukie Industrial Area and the Johnson Creek Industrial area to provide enhanced transportation access throughout Milwaukie, particularly for employees, the transit dependent and low-income populations.
Timeline
To plan most effectively, we need your input now so that we can plan for and implement the Oregon City last mile shuttle and Clackamas Industrial Area last mile shuttle by this fall and study the feasibility for the Milwaukie last mile shuttle and Oregon City, West Linn and Tualatin commuter shuttle, with implementation further off into the future.
