Lake Oswego Transit Center
The Lake Oswego Transit Center is a transit center operated by TriMet, at 4th Street and A Avenue in Lake Oswego, Oregon. The following bus routes serve the transit center: * 35 – Macadam/Greeley * 36 – South Shore * 37 – Lake Grove * 78 – Beaverton/Lake Oswego In 2002, an overhaul was planned due to the proliferation of pedestrian obstacles. At that time, the four bus lines serving the center picked up 593 passengers and dropped off 505 on an average weekday. Low ridership for two of the four bus lines serving the transit center (the 36 and 37, connecting Lake Oswego with Tualatin) was a concern for TriMet in the 2000s.

Transit Center
A transport hub is a place where passengers and cargo are exchanged between vehicles and/or between transport modes. Public transport hubs include railway stations, rapid transit stations, bus stops, tram stops, airports and ferry slips. Freight hubs include classification yards, airports, seaports and truck terminals, or combinations of these. For private transport by car, the parking lot functions as a unimodal hub. History Historically, an interchange service in the scheduled passenger air transport industry involved a "through plane" flight operated by two or more airlines where a single aircraft was used with the individual airlines operating it with their own flight crews on their respective portions of a direct, no-change-of-plane multi-stop flight. In the U.S., a number of air carriers including Alaska Airlines, American Airlines, Braniff International Airways, Continental Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Eastern Airlines, Frontier Airlines (1950-1986), Hughes Airwest, ...
