Oregon Travel Pattern Map

Jordan's national team delegation -- approximately 65 personnel plus security -- is headquartered at The Nines hotel in downtown Portland with daily training at the University of Portland in North Portland. Both of Jordan's group stage matches are played in San Francisco, not Seattle. Portland is the residential hub throughout. The delegation departs for San Francisco roughly 48 hours before each match and returns after. The June 17-20 window -- four consecutive days between the two match departures -- is the highest-concentration hospitality period in the Portland Team Base Camp calendar. The full delegation is in residence with no imminent travel pressure and no match-day disruption. That demand does not stay in Portland. On non-match days, this visitor base moves. The Gorge, the coast, Mt. Hood, and the Willamette Valley are all day-trip distances from The Nines. Every construction bottleneck on those routes is a capture window for the operator at the exit.
