Portland Transit Cuts Hit Green Line | Portland News

from Portland News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Portland’s MAX Green Line and 33 bus routes are getting a major overhaul starting this Sunday to fix a $224 million budget shortfall. Two low-ridership lines are being cut, the Green Line is shortening its route, and riders face new transfers — especially downtown commuters like Kat Moore who now deal with longer trips and parking headaches. While some see it as a minor inconvenience, others highlight real struggles, especially with luggage. TriMet insists these tough changes are essential for long-term survival amid falling ridership and rising costs — so plan ahead using their online tools.
