How to Start a Transportation Program

Arrow symbol

Setting up a transportation program is easy. Your TriMet marketing representative is here to help you succeed, and can help you get the word out with brochures, schedules, and even a transportation fair.


Step 1: Choose your program and subsidy level

Your TriMet representative will help you find the transit pass program and commute options that best fit your school. Whether or not to subsidize is a big decision, but offering a subsidy is a proven way to motivate students to use other commute options.

Step 2: Choose a transportation coordinator

Your transportation coordinator (TC) acts as a liaison between your school and TriMet. Your TC develops and manages a transportation plan and motivates students to make the most of it.
