I just moved back to Portland after living in London, England for the past five years where I used the trains, tubes and buses everyday to commute to and from work. It is so nice to be back in Portland with Trimets' friendly drivers and relatively clean buses. I like the system for calling to see when the next bus is due.

I do think that Trimet needs to improve their monthly pass system. In London riders can buy passes from any date to any date. I think Trimets' current system is NOT user friendly, where you must buy a monthly pass on the first and it expires on the last day of the month! It needs to be flexible to accommodate a wide variety of riders individual needs.
