Bike Parking on the Portland Mall

As part of the MAX Green Line project, we added about 130 short-term bike parking spaces along 5th and 6th avenues and on adjacent blocks. This provides more capacity for cyclists who also ride buses and trains on their commute.

Bike oases

"Bike oases" have been installed at several locations along the Mall. A bike oasis is a group of bike racks that are covered to provide shelter from the weather. You'll find an oasis at or near:

  • SW 5th & Columbia
  • SW 5th & Yamhill
  • SW 6th & Washington
  • NW 6th & Couch
