It's easy to get around the city on TriMet buses.
Know Before You Go
Editor’s note: TriMet stopped offering and accepting paper tickets in 2019. Visit TriMet’s website for more information, including:
– How to ride the bus
– Bus fares & how to pay
The TriMet bus system, which covers the city and its suburbs thoroughly, offers low fares, friendly drivers and full wheelchair accessibility. Most buses are equipped with bike racks, making mass transit more user-friendly for the cycling set.
Pay your fare using Hop Fastpass, an electronic-fare payment system launched by TriMet in 2017. Hop cards can be purchased for $3 at the TriMet Information Center in Pioneer Courthouse Square (as well as local retailers and grocery stores). When you need to add value, you can reload using the cards using the Hop Fastpass mobile app or at local stores. To use a Hop Fastpass, tap the card on a designated card reader each time you board the MAX light rail, streetcar or bus.
