Pilot Travel Center #311

What they do. Who they serve.

Pilot Travel Center #311 sits just off I-5 at exit 278 in Aurora, Oregon, serving the north Willamette Valley corridor between Portland and Salem. This is the closest full-scale Pilot to Oregon's capital, making it a strategic fuel and rest stop for drivers running the I-5 spine or serving freight terminals in the Salem metro. The location offers diesel fuel, truck scales, and over 200 dedicated truck parking spaces—critical capacity on a stretch where overnight parking fills fast during peak produce and warehouse seasons. Open around the clock, this Aurora Pilot handles steady traffic from regional hauls, Sysco runs, and long-haul teams moving between California and the Pacific Northwest. It's a practical midpoint for drivers who need verified scales, reliable fuel pricing, and room to park without the congestion of Portland-area stops.
