Fleet Week in Portland will bring ships and traffic

Ships from the U.S. Navy, Coast Guard and Royal Canadian Navy will be arriving between 2 and 6 p.m., prompting extra lifts from the Steel, Broadway and Burnside bridges. TriMet says all Max lines and the Portland streetcar, plus some bus rides, will be disrupted across the Steel Bridge.

Drivers, cyclists and pedestrians should also expect major delays across multiple bridges. The ships will dock at Tom McCall Waterfront Park as part of the Portland Rose Festival. They’ll be open for daytime public tours starting from Thursday through this weekend.
