(Portland, OR) -- TriMet will receive 39-million-dollars from the Federal Transit Administration to jump-start the 82nd Avenue Transit Project. This is on top of a previous grant to expand the Columbia Operations Facility. That's where new hydrogen fuel-cell electric buses will be fueled and maintained. TriMet hopes to buy 14 of the hydrogen fuel-cell buses. The 82nd Avenue Transit Project is just entering project development and design. A new Frequent Express line will run on the 82nd Avenue corridor. Completion is anticipated in the summer of 2029.
