BIKETOWN + TRANSIT

BIKETOWN is a great tool for transit users to help them extend the reach of transportation options, making trips by bus or train more accessible and one-way bike/transit trips possible. Trimet's Trip Planner allows you to build BIKETOWN into your transit route.

ADAPTIVE BIKETOWN

Adaptive BIKETOWN is Portland’s adaptive bike rental program. The program’s goal is to increase biking access for people with disabilities. Discounted rental rates are available to individuals who qualify for a TriMet Honored Citizens Pass (people with disabilities, Medicare recipients, and seniors age 65 and over) or for others who self-identify that they are unable to ride a traditional two-wheeled bicycle, whether due to injury, illness or ability. Visit the Adaptive BIKETOWN website for more information.
