Southeast Park Avenue is a light rail station on the MAX Orange Line located at Southeast McLoughlin Boulevard and Park Avenue in Oak Grove, an unincorporated area neighboring Milwaukie in Clackamas County, Oregon, in the United States. It is the terminus and southernmost stop on the Orange Line and has a 401-space park and ride facility.[1][2]
Older plans for the station included a parking garage south of Southeast Park Avenue that were later scrapped.[3]
Originally, it was planned that this station would be one of two MAX stations, the other being Southeast Bybee Boulevard (also on the Orange Line), that would have fare turnstiles installed as part of a TriMet pilot project during the testing of the Hop Fastpass electronic fare system[4] in 2017, but those plans have not proceeded.
On August 5, 2022, a MAX train collided into a stopblock and damaged parts of the platform.[5][6]
In March 2024, TriMet began construction of two additional stories at the Park & Ride.[7]
Bus service
Along with the MAX Orange Line, the station is served by the following bus lines:
- 33 - McLoughlin/King Rd.
- 99 - Macadam/McLoughlin
