Gas prices getting you down? We’ve got you covered with four ways to be fuel frugal.
Get stepping
Portland is rated as the 13th most walkable large city in the US, and is known as “one of the most walking, biking, and public transit friendly cities on the West Coast,” on Walk Score. This means it’s time to break out your walking shoes and embark on one of these Portland Walking Tours. 👟
Break out the bikes
Enjoy pedaling down the Springwater on the Willamette path, which runs from Downtown to Sellwood Bridge + leads to other bike-friendly trails. Or, stop by Joe Bike at 2039 SE Cesar E. Chavez Blvd.
Not ready to commit to buying your own bike? Try out Biketown or rent with Cycle Portland.
Public transit is legit
Getting around Portland is made simple with a plethora of bus routes from TriMet + the uniquely-Portland OHSU Aerial Tram. Pro tip: download the TriMet app to make riding around the city even easier.
Get creative with your commute
Hunt down the best gas prices by using an app like GasBuddy or Google Maps. Split the bill by starting a carpool with your coworkers + get the perks of riding in the HOV (High Occupancy Vehicle) lanes.
