Helping you navigate cuts & changes to Lines 45 & 96

  • 10 minutes ago

If you're a frequent rider of Lines 45, or 96, you need to know about some major changes coming to your usual route.


Line 45 will no longer serve destinations between Washington Square TC and Tigard TC. This means service will be eliminated on SW 121st Ave and SW Walnut St. Line 45 will also no longer serve downtown Portland directly. Riders will need to transfer to a northbound 12 (to Parkrose TC) at Barbur TC.


Service will also be reduced to weekday and high school commute hours only.


Line 96 will no longer run express on I-5. Instead it will use local roads and serve intermediate stops on Boones Ferry Rd. and Kerr Pkwy.


Service will also be reduced to weekday commute hours with five round trips in the morning, and five round trips in the afternoon into the early evening.

If these are your regular routes, you may wish to find alternative routes or modes when changes go into effect. You may also wish to make substantial changes to your travel habits and usual trip times or destinations.

WTA is here to help! You can use Transit App to plan your trip after Sunday, August 23 from end-to-end including walking and biking directions for getting to and from transit.

More we're doing to inform transit riders

To help inform riders, we worked with the City of Tigard, City of Tualatin, TriMet, our business members, and TriMet to post supplemental rider alert information at select stops in Washington County with pending service changes or cuts.
