One of the only aerial commuter trams in the country, Portland Aerial Tram connects South Waterfront to Marquam Hill. Passengers ride between S. Moody & Gibbs on the waterfront and Kohler Pavilion on the hill. Designed to handle severe weather conditions, the Tram runs year-round.

Guidelines for riders

The Tram is public transit. You can help make riding it a safe, enjoyable experience for everyone by following guidelines and courtesies. Some of those include:

• When the cabin is full, consider placing large bags at your feet.
• Allow first-time riders, especially children, to find room closer to a window.
• Conversations aren't private, so wait until exiting the Tram to discuss sensitive or private information.
• Carry any lab samples in approved containers.
• If you're a healthcare provider, the Tram isn't patient transportation, so consider riding the Tram to meet your patient instead.
