This article is for subscribers only.
Uber Technologies Inc. is limiting service in Portland, Oregon, for three months as it works with local officials on regulations that will let the mobile car-booking application operate legally in the city.
Uber said in a blog post today that it is stopping pickups in Portland on Dec. 21 while regulations are being worked out, though drop-offs in the city can continue. If new rules aren’t in place by April 9, Portland will let ridesharing companies operate again, Uber said.
