Carpool
Sharing a ride with one, two, or even three other southbound commuters is the most flexible way to cut down on the cost of your southbound commute.

One of the easiest ways to find a carpool partner is to create an account on this site. By creating an account,and going to the Ridematch section of the web site, it will allow you to creat a trip and it then will automatically match you up with other users in the system. It is a confidential carpoolmatching system that will allow you to contact potential matches via e-mail to start the discussion about possibly setting up a carpool

Vanpool
If you know of five to twelve people who live in the same area and want to share a ride to Clackamas you might want to consider forming or joining a C-TRAN vanpool.

For more information, please call 360-696-4494.

Transit
There are several options available to southbound commuters who want to relax during their commute and leave the driving to someone else. With the cooperative efforts of C-TRAN and TriMet, there may be a transit route that is a perfect fit for you!


Bicycle
While Clackamas County may seem like a far bike ride, depending on where you live in Southwest Washington, it could be a good option for you. You can ride the whole distance or you could ride your bike to a bus stop or transit center and either leave your bike there if secure facilities are available or you could take your bike with you.

Both the I-5 bridge and I-205 bridge have bike paths that are accessible from both Vancouver and Portland. The City of Vancouver has developed a new bike map that shows routes within Vancouver to the bridges, and then it also includes the City of Portland bike map. If you’d like a copy of the new Vancouver Bike Map, send us an e-mail that includes your name and mailing address and we’ll send one to you right away!
