New Website Makes Riding SMART in Clackamas County Even Easier

Buses at Wilsonville Transit Center

October 30, 2023 — Wilsonville’s award-winning South Metro Area Regional Transit, known locally as SMART, is participating with other Clackamas County transit providers to make trip planning easier.

RideClackamas.org is a new, interactive website launched this summer to make riding the bus — and other modes of public transportation — easier for people who live and work in Clackamas County.

The mobile-responsive website features a trip-planner that connects all six County bus systems and other regional transit services. The site offers real-time bus tracking and an interactive map that includes route schedules and photos of bus stop locations to help riders easily navigate multiple transit systems.

Visitors receive detailed system information —  including fares, routes, connection points, and alerts — for SMART, Canby Area Transit (CAT), Clackamas Connects Shuttle (ClackCo), Mt. Hood Express (MHX), Sandy Area Metro (SAM), and South Clackamas Transportation District (SCTD). Connection information for TriMet and other regional transit services is also provided, ensuring a user-friendly, one-stop website for bus riders looking to get to any corner of Clackamas County.

“We’re always eager to invest in programs and technologies that improve the user experience and make it easier to move freely throughout Clackamas County,” said Dwight Brashear, SMART Transit Director. “RideClackamas.org empowers people to plan a trip with all the information they need at their fingertips.”

Sponsored by Clackamas County, and funded through the Oregon Department of Transportation, the project was guided by input from participating providers, including SMART, and community members who rely on transit services.
