Forest and Washington Park Express Shuttle
The Forest & Washington Park Express Shuttle is a free pilot transit service operated by Portland Parks & Recreation (PP&R). During summer 2026, Express Shuttle buses will make regular stops in neighborhoods in East, North, and Northeast Portland and Forest Park and Washington Park, two popular city parks that are hard to get to because of their locations and limited public transit options. The buses will provide a free way for people to get to these parks from areas closer to home. The buses will also take people back to neighborhood stops to return home after visiting the parks.
Ride the Express Shuttle to explore Forest Park and Washington Park this summer. To find things to do in Forest Park and in Washington Park, check the Activities Calendar. Information and activities will be available in multiple languages. All buses are ADA accessible.
Our closest stop is at Peninsula Park Community Center and leaves at 8:30am, 10:30am, 12:40pm, and 2:25pm every Friday and Saturday. Check out the website for more info and detailed maps.

Prosper Portland Small Business Repair/Restore Grants
These small grants (up to $25,000) are available for local businesses who have experienced vandalism or break-ins and are in need of repair. This is a reimbursement program, so businesses need to pay for the repair upfront and submit a request for reimbursement. Check out more details on the website here.
Community Reporting
The City of Portland relies on complaint-based enforcement systems. This means the responsibility is on residents to report what they’re seeing and experiencing.
