COMMUTING INFORMATION

The Health Professions Campus location on the MAX Light Rail line is a purposeful choice!  The Campus plans to grow with a light footprint, reducing, not contributing to air quality degradation and congestion and enhancing a vibrant neighborhood.  Let's work together to achieve this goal. 

VEHICLE

Vehicle commuting is discouraged.  Parking is very limited and restricted in the residential neighborhoods surrounding the campus. There are free public parking lots in Downtown Hillsboro. Spaces are not reserved.  Best used with MAX.

BICYCLES

Secure indoor and outdoor bicycle parking is provided on campus.  There are also "commuter" shower and dressing facilities available for your convenience.  "Bike Station," is a private company providing secure indoor parking, showers and lockers at the Inter-modal Transit Facility (ITF) adjacent to the Health Professions Campus.
