Smart Transit

Family events.

You don't need to rely on public transportation to appreciate Smart. Smart plans a few family events throughout the year that are just fantastic. During the summer, they schedule a several tours though Wilsonville on their trolley. Think this will be a slow meander though town? Think again. The trolley runs at the speed a regular bus would go, which means the wind whips though your hair, and your 3 year old squeals with delight every time you take off from a streetlight. If you live on the far south end of Portland, and you have little people, this is a summer must do. And you know what else? They don't charge for the trolley ride, they suggest a monetary donation that goes to the local food bank. Just when I thought my afternoon outing couldn't get any better, I was informed that my donation benefits the food bank. How cool is that?!

During the winter Smart does a trip or two out the PIR to see the holiday lights. You park at the Wilsonville Community Center and board the bus- then your hassle is over. Go enjoy the PIR lights with my kid without worrying about navigating traffic? Um, please. Sign me up!

Smart is definitely an asset to family life in Wilsonville!
