  Tri-Met views security as a top priority. As a result, we're continually working to make your transit trip as safe as possible. Security Personnel Thirty-three (33) sworn law enforcement officers, in addition to fare inspectors and supervisors, patrol and respond to transit emergencies. Six (6) Rider Advocates ride buses and trains in North and Northeast Portland to provide a presence that discourages disruptive behavior. They carry radios to call for assistance if necessary. TriMet contracts with the Northeast Coalition of Neighborhoods for this program. Hi-Tech Assistance
