Portland Streetcar
South Waterfront

The first segment of the south waterfront line opened in 2006 between Riverplace and SW Gibbs/Moody. The rest of the south waterfront opened in 2007. This section runs from the junction with the future Caruthers Street Bridge to Lowell. The OHSU Tram transfers can be made along this portion.
