TriMet’s LIFT paratransit service is a shared-ride public transportation service for people who are unable to use regular buses or light rail transit due to a disability or disabling health condition. The need for LIFT Service is growing and TriMet relocated the LIFT Operations facility from the Powell Garage site to the Powell MAX Station Park & Ride site. The facility allows for storage of the increased LIFT vehicle fleet and require reconfiguration of a portion of the Powell Park & Ride to accommodate storage of 140 LIFT vehicles, employee parking, 6,100 square foot operations and dispatch building, 2,400 square foot storage building, on-site storm water treatment and retaining wall.
