Bike

Sometimes you want to find a different way to get to work, one that combines work with play. The South Waterfront is conveniently connected to the 40-mile bike loop, so biking to work doesn't have to mean dodging cars.

Bike Lanes/Paths

  • SW Moody Ave./SW Bond Ave. – Bike lanes along these two streets provide safe on-street space for cyclists to access the South Waterfront. Learn more about the construction of the Moody Cycle track.
  • South Waterfront Greenway – A 4.35 acre park along the Willamette River which includes paved paths, public art, and riverfront views.

Helpful Hints When Parking Your Bike

  • Lock the wheel and frame to the rack with a high-security, U-shaped lock.
  • Be sure the rack itself is securely anchored.

Route Planning

  • Portland Bureau of Transportation has created a regional bike map showing the location of bike and multi-purpose lanes, along with roadways color-coded to indicate the degree of traffic congestion. Download the Map.
  • South Waterfront TMA stocks a variety of bikeway maps produced by the cities of Portland and Vancouver. You can also check your local bike shop for maps and information.
  • Look for "Bike Route" signs and follow bike lanes.
  • ByCycle.org is an online route-planner similar to Mapquest or Google Maps, but designed specifically for bike trips.
