Frequent Service

Every 15 minutes or better during rush hour

Frequent Service symbolImage of Frequent Service bus stop signTriMet's Frequent Service bus lines run every 15 minutes or better during the weekday morning and afternoon rush hour. All MAX lines run about every 15 minutes most of the day, every day. (Service is less frequent in the early morning, midday and evening.)

Frequent Service lines connect the regional hubs where many riders live and work.

In addition to providing more frequency during commute times, these lines have a number of features designed to make your trips easier, faster and more comfortable:

  • new shelters and sign poles with service information and Stop ID numbers
  • ADA-compliant landings and curb ramps
  • bus stop re-spacing and curb extensions
  • better pedestrian access
  • traffic signal priority
  • bus-only lanes

As of November 29, 2009, we have temporarily reduced frequency on some Frequent Service lines during mid-day, evenings and weekends, due to a budget shortfall. As a result, 15-minute service frequency is provided during the weekday morning and afternoon rush hour only. We plan to restore service frequency as the economy recovers.
