HOW TO RIDE PORTLAND STREETCAR

  • Streetcar does NOT stop at every stop automatically. You must signal the operator by pushing the vertical or horizontal yellow strip on the high floor section of the car or push the buttons on the door. If you have been successful at signaling for a stop, the reader board inside the car will say stop.
  • Streetcar will stop if passengers are waiting at the designated stop platforms.
  • Because Portland Streetcar operates in mixed traffic like a bus, travel times could not be maintained if every designated platform stop was recognized.
  • Portland Streetcar has low floors for each boarding of wheelchairs and is air-conditioned.
