Transport Unit
Washington County's only jail is located on the west side of the county in Hillsboro, Oregon. This means that all agencies in the county transport their arrestees to our jail.
As a result of the 2000 Public Safety Levy, the Sheriff's Office implemented a transport system to support city police and deputies. Deputies in the transport van respond to to pick up arrestees for transports to the Washington County Jail in groups, allowing the city officers and deputies to quickly return to patrol in their area.
