TriMet says MAX Blue Line service between the 172nd Avenue and Cleveland Avenue stations will be disrupted all day, because of a crash.

A MAX train and landscaping truck collided near 185th and East Burnside.

The truck damaged a pole that holds the overhead wire.

TriMet says it will take most of the day to repair the pole.

Two passengers on the train were transported for minor injuries.  The pickup driver was cited for one count of Failure to Obey a Traffic Control Device (No Left Turn sign). The investigation by Transit Police is ongoing.

Shuttle buses are running between the 172nd Avenue and Cleveland Avenue stations and passengers should expect delays.
