Rose Quarter Transit Center is a transit complex located in the Rose Quarter area in Portland, Oregon; it is served by both the TriMet and C-Tran transit agencies. It contains a bus station served by 12 bus lines and two MAX light rail stops served by four lines. It is served by the Blue and Red MAX lines at the Rose Quarter Transit Center stop, as well as the Yellow Line at the Interstate/Rose Quarter stop located along North Interstate Avenue. Originally called Coliseum Transit Center, it was renamed Rose Quarter Transit Center in 1994. It is TriMet's busiest transit center, with 9,454 average weekday boardings and alightings for all modes in fall 2025.
Rose Quarter Transit Center is located at 1091 North Williams Avenue; the complex serves the Rose Quarter area, as well as the Moda Center and the Veterans Memorial Coliseum located to the northwest. Rose Quarter Transit Center has three platforms: two side platforms plus an additional island platform and track used as train storage and during special events. The former Portland Vintage Trolley car barn is located on the north side of the platforms at Rose Quarter Transit Center and connects to the tracks just to the east of the station. It has since been converted into a maintenance facility for TriMet workers.
From 2001 to 2012, the transit center was located within Fareless Square (renamed the Free Rail Zone in 2010), but the free-ride zone was discontinued in September 2012.
