We are the Friends of Portland Streetcar
Whether you’re just visiting portland, or a daily streetcar rider, we’re working to improve your Portland Streetcar experience.
Shaping Portland’s Light Rail for
Over 30 Years
Previously known as the Portland Streetcar Citizens’ Advisory Committee, we’ve been working with Portland Streetcar, Inc, TriMet, and the Portland Bureau of Transportation since 1989.
39% of Portland’s affordable housing is within ¼ mile of a Streetcar line.
35% of Streetcar riders earn less than $30,000 annually.
Streetcar runs entirely on wind energy – since day one, 2001.
The Friends of Portland Streetcar support the Montgomery Park Area Plan.
