TriMet’s current operating budget includes some limited funding for work environment improvements. One area of improvement highlighted by operators and managers was the need to upgrade the seating in operator break rooms out in the field. Much of that seating is below standards for comfort and durability.
As an initial step toward a more comfortable work environment, we are upgrading the chairs located at Gateway, Clackamas, and Gresham Central. The new chairs will be arriving at these locations soon.

Interestingly, all three of these locations are served by MAX.
Any new chairs for Tigard TC? Nope.
Tualatin P&R? Nada.
Washington Square TC? I don't see it.
Oregon City? (crickets)
Milwaukie? Pier Park? Forest Grove?
How many buses actually lay over at Tigard? I can only think of Line 45. Plus, is there really a break room there, and not just a bathroom?
I know Tualatin, Pier Park and Forest Grove are all just bathrooms. Washington Square and Milwaukie don't have any dedicated operator facilities.
And how many MAX operators have breaks at Gateway or Gresham Central (which isn't even an end of a line or relief point)?
Overall, it could be that the selected locations are either most in need or have the highest use.
