Directions to OHSU
Once you reach the OHSU Auditorium, a parking attendant will be on hand to direct you to the closest parking spot. Parking is free at OHSU on Saturdays.
Public transportation to OHSU
OHSU is served by the TriMet No. 8 bus (Jackson Park) which runs about every 15 minutes, Monday through Saturday. The No. 8 bus makes several stops within OHSU - the closest to the OHSU Auditorium is the BICC (Biomedical Information and Communications Center), #22 on the campus map. Take the stairs up 2 flights from the BICC drop-off, cross the pedestrian bridge and the street. You will then see the OHSU Auditorium on your left.
Call TriMet at 503-238-RIDE during weekday office hours or visit TRIMET for information and trip-planning help.
