TriMet’s Hillsboro MAX Improvements, underway for the past three weeks, shift into high gear in just a few days. MAX Blue Line service will be disrupted between Hatfield Government Center and Fair Complex/Hillsboro Airport MAX stations from Saturday, Oct. 13 through Saturday, Oct. 27. Unlike major projects in the past, this disruption will have less impact on riders but the benefits of the project will help improve the reliability of the MAX system and the experience for riders in Hillsboro. TriMet staff spent the past nine months developing plans to keep our riders moving during the construction.  We appreciate our riders’ patience while we work to improve the MAX system.

What riders need to know
