Posted by Jonathan Maus (Publisher/Editor) on September 12th, 2015 at 9:51 am

Today is the Big Day. TriMet’s new Orange Line MAX and the Tilikum Crossing Bridge opens for regular service.
There are a ton of free activities happening all along the new line, from South Waterfront down to Milwaukie.
We’re putting up this post in hopes you’ll share your experiences out there — whether you’re biking, walking, taking the bus, riding streetcar, or riding the MAX.
And of course the real test will begin Monday as thousands of people re-route their commutes to take advantage of the new bridge.
Will the Tilikum change how you get around?
What do you think of the incline/decline on the bridge?
How are the crossings of the tracks in inner SE Clinton area?
Thanks for sharing your experiences.
