Yamhill Street is an east-west street that, like most streets in Portland, is divided into an east and west section by the [[Willamette River]].
Yamhill Street could refer to either [[SE Yamhill Street]] or [[SW Yamhill Street]].
 
==Southeast Yamhill==
On the [[Eastside]], starts from a [[Morrison Bridge]] off-ramp that exits at [[SE Water Avenue|SE Water]] and continues until it is interrupted at [[SE 10th Avenue|SE 10th]]. The street resumes at [[SE 12th Avenue|SE 12th]], but is again interrupted two blocks later at [[SE 14th Avenue|SE 14th]]. Starting at [[SE 20th Avenue|SE 20th]], the street begins anew and continues until it hits [[SE 45th Avenue|SE 45th]]. After making a brief appearance between [[SE 47th Avenue|SE 47th]] and [[SE 49th Avenue|SE 49th]], Yamhill makes its longest continuous run on either side of the river, stretching from [[SE 55th Avenue|SE 55th]] to [[SE 94th Avenue|SE 94th]]. Beyond [[Interstate 205]], Yamhill becomes increasingly fragmented, appearing a block or two at a time, before it finally terminates at [[SE 221st Avenue|SE 221st]].
 
==Southwest Yamhill==
On the [[Westside]], SW Yamhill runs from [[SW Naito Parkway|SW Naito]] to [[SW 17th Avenue|SW 17th]]. It is a one-way street, with traffic flowing from the west towards the east. For the majority of the street, one lane is dedicated to [[MAX]] trains. Yamhill re-appears briefly in the [[King's Hill]] section of the [[Goose Hollow]] neighborhood, where it runs from [[SW 21st Avenue|SW 21st]] to a spur just off of [[SW St. Clair Avenue|SW St. Clair]].
