caption_attribution_description: TriMet's second Clackamas Town Center Transit Center opened in 2009 and is located to the east of the shopping mall. (The original Clackamas Town Center Transit Center opened in 1981 and was located on the north side of the mall.) Uniquely among all TriMet transit centers, buses laying over at this 2009-opened facility do so in an area that is off-limits to passengers, and passengers are allowed to board only when the bus is ready to depart, and all boarding for all routes takes place at a single stop. This view from the stairway leading to the MAX station shows the three-story park-and-ride garage and a bus loading at the departure stop. The building in the lefthand background is the back of the J. C. Penney store.

  Owned by regional transit agency TriMet, the current transit center opened in 2009 and is located on the east side of the Clackamas Town Center mall, adjacent to Interstate 205. An earlier transit center at the mall had opened in 1981.

It has a three-story, 750-space park-and-ride garage, and is served by 10 bus lines. The light-rail station is set up as an island platform station. Additionally, it has a single-track stub extending south of the station, for the storage of an overflow or out-of-service (defective) train. The I-205 Bike Path passes by the transit center.
