Portland and Vancouver have always been united by commerce, culture and shared values. Our transit investments will enhance the bond between our cities, connecting riders to jobs, schools and family.

Imagine crossing the Columbia River without waiting for a bridge lift. That's part of our long-term vision for a new Interstate Bridge: a safer, more reliable connection between Portland and Vancouver.

I-5 is the most critical freight corridor on the West Coast. The new multimodal, earthquake-resilient Interstate Bridge will improve regional freight movement efficiency, support national commerce and meet the needs of a rapidly growing region.

Interstate Bridge Fact of the Day: ⛴️ Before the bridge opened in 1917, the only way to get across the river by car between Oregon and Washington was via ferry. Learn more about this historic and aging bridge in this @OregonDOT video: youtube.com/watch?v=j0wGM-7m…

Bridge lifts have always stopped traffic on the Interstate Bridge. The new fixed-span Interstate Bridge will eliminate bridge lifts, allowing vehicles and transit to operate unimpeded while also continuing to serve river users.

"For years, we've been dealing with the unpredictability of that bridge. It impacts our ability to schedule reliably." The new fixed-span Interstate Bridge will improve daily commutes and make regional freight movement more efficient. youtube.com/watch?v=N3UdjR2G…

Soccer and bridges: two things that connect communities. 🤝 The @TimbersFC season is coming to a close, but we began the year asking footie fans from Portland, Vancouver and beyond to tell us about what future Interstate Bridge improvements they are most excited about.

An earthquake-resilient Interstate Bridge is essential to keeping our region safe. On International #ShakeOut day, watch our video from a few years ago to learn more about how the current bridge would be affected by a major seismic event. youtube.com/watch?v=bVo8uUMe…
