Name the Portland - Milwaukie Light Rail bridge over the Willamette River

City of Milwaukie Oregon Official Website

TriMet is inviting the public to name the new bridge that’s being constructed over the Willamette River as part of the Portland-Milwaukie Light Rail Project.

Suggested names can be submitted through TriMet’s website, www.trimet.org/namethebridge, through Dec. 1st. The bridge will be one of a kind - only carrying buses, trains, cyclists and pedestrians - no private vehicles.

A selection committee, chaired by Chet Orloff, Director Emeritus of the Oregon Historical Society and a 22-year member of the Oregon Geographic Names Board, will pare down all of the submittals to a short list for further public comment.

Final names will be forwarded by the committee to the TriMet General Manager for final selection in spring 2014. Enter your idea for a chance of becoming a part of history.
