main contentTransportation and Parking
Our resources can help you find the best options for parking on campus, commuting, finding alternate transportation solutions, and will ensure you can abide by our transit regulations while you’re here.
Whether you are a L&C community member or visitor, there are many ways to get to our campus. Portland’s public transportation system, TriMet, serves our campuses through route 35, and our free shuttle takes our students and staff from stops around Portland to L&C every day of the week. Our partnership with Zipcar gives our students and staff access to vehicles to run an errand or take a day trip to explore what the Pacific Northwest has to offer. We have bike storage available across campus, along with a student-run bike co-op! No matter the transportation method, the resources here will help you from journey to destination.
