Beginning Aug. 25, bus service will run in place of MAX trains during late-night hours

 

TriMet is introducing bus service that will run in place of MAX trains during late-night hours.

If you ride MAX Blue, Orange, Red or Yellow Lines, here’s what you need to know:

  • These buses will serve the last few trips of the service day for MAX lines, beginning at or near midnight.
  • This change will begin on August 25.

The Line 291-Orange Bus will continue to serve Orange Line riders with the addition of a new northbound route and updated late-night schedules.

By providing late night-trips on buses instead of trains, we'll be able to complete more overnight maintenance projects on our light rail system and reduce unplanned service disruptions, as well as multi-day disruptions for improvement projects. This will help us provide more reliable MAX service during the hours most people are riding.

A MAX Green Line late-night bus is not needed because the Green Line already has a nearly five-hour overnight work window.

While buses will be running in place of MAX trains, they will only be providing service for current late-night MAX trips. The buses will not run throughout the night. They will match current MAX late-night service hours.
