TriMet's Transit Police
Staffing
TriMetʼs Transit Police is composed of personnel from five regional law enforcement agencies. As the
command agency, the Multnomah County Sheriffʼs Office provides a captain as police chief and two
lieutenants who are supported by six sergeants and 33 sheriffʼs deputies and police officers.
Additional sworn partner agencies include the Portland Police Bureau, Port of Portland Police Department,
Beaverton Police Department, and Hillsboro Police Department. TriMet Police also receives dedicated
prosecution services from the Multnomah County District Attorneyʼs Office.
With Sheriff Nicole Morrisey O'Donnell's support and increased staffing in 2025, Transit Police expanded to
seven-day-a-week coverage during peak a昀琀ernoon periods.
Throughout 2025, the command team for Transit Police engaged in extensive planning with Clackamas
County partners, including the Oregon City, Canby, and Lake Oswego Police departments. These agencies
are exploring participation in our regional transit law enforcement model. These collaborative efforts will
continue through 2026 as we expand our staffing footprint and serve the growing needs of our communities.
