Milwaukie Transit Center Bus shelter



This should be renamed, "SP Red Electric Plaza."

Ahh, thanks Steve!

Actually I don't like these shelters. Granted they're better than the sorry shelters TriMet usually uses... but these shelters provide nearly no shelter from wind, have insufficient seating, and the roofs are great at causing water runoff to drain...onto people.

And there's no information about bus routes (unlike the pletora of information one can find at a MAX stop - including vicinity maps, detailed system maps, detailed timetables and more).

That said...they are attractive and still better than what was there before.

Oh, and it can't be called "SP Red Electric" Plaza. The Red Electrics never went to Milwaukie - they went to Lake Oswego and kept going north along what is now the Willamette Shores Trolley (a.k.a. the Lake Oswego Streetcar) route to Portland. They didn't cross the Willamette.
