Location

Willow Creek/SW 185th Ave Transit Center, commonly called Willow Creek Transit Center, is a multimodal transport hub in Hillsboro, Oregon, United States, served by bus and light rail. The TriMet transit center is the ninth station eastbound on the MAX Blue Line, the fifth station eastbound on the MAX Red Line, and a hub for bus routes mostly serving Washington County in the Portland metropolitan area. It is located near the intersection of Southwest Baseline Road and 185th Avenue.

Opened in 1998, the station was originally conceived as the western terminus of the Westside MAX, but the line was extended further west into Hillsboro due to population growth occurring at the time the line was being planned. Artwork at the stop represents a reading motif, as a library was planned for the station, but never built. Willow Creek is near the Oregon National Primate Research Center and the rest of the Oregon Health & Science University's West Campus in the Tanasbourne neighborhood.
