Clackamas County

For information on the transportation services in your neighborhood, visit Transportation Services by Zip Code.

The following services are available for Clackamas County:

1. Specialized Transportation

Client Based Service
Client Based Programs provide transportation services to their elderly clients and/or clients with disabilities. The narrow focus of each program is different: some programs focus on the community needs, others focus on low income individuals, some focus on a specific disability and others serve clients of a certain facility. Each Client Based Program is limited to serving the clients that are enrolled in their particular program and assign drivers to assist clients with their transportation needs. Though each program assists their clients as appropriate, generally they provide trips for medical, shopping, nutritive, recreational, supportive services and volunteer/work activities.

Neighborhood Based Service
Ride Connection’s neighborhood-based partner agencies provide coordinated door-to-door demand response transportation. Agencies respond to specific one-time and ongoing ride requests from customers. Drivers provide rides for medical, nutritive, shopping, supportive services, life sustaining medical, recreational, and volunteer/work-related needs. Hours and days of service vary within each of the Network partner agencies.

2. Customer Training

RideWise
RideWise is a collaborative effort between TriMet, Ride Connection and other organizations to assist older adults and people living with disabilities to travel independently. Transportation Representatives guide individuals through the resources and options available in their community. This personalized service provides customers with information on all transportation options so that they are able to choose the best option for each of their trips.
