The Kenton Connection is a proposed trail in the North Portland neighborhood of Kenton, connecting the future Interstate MAX light rail station in downtown Kenton to the 40-Mile Loop.

Confluence Consulting worked with a five member advisory committee, with members from Portland agencies and organizations, to assist in developing trail route alternatives. Confluence Consulting also conducted public outreach and education in the Kenton neighborhood to assess residents' preferences on route alignments and trailside amenities. Additionally, businesses and industries in the area were contacted and queried about their concerns and preferences for a connection.
