An image forming apparatus includes: an image bearing member; a transfer member; and a contact-and-separation portion. The contact-and-separation means includes: an urging member; a movement driving portion; and a controller for controlling the movement driving portion so that the transfer member is locatable at a contact position where the transfer member is contacted to the image bearing member, a first spaced position where the transfer member is spaced from the image bearing member in a state in which a load by the urging force is exerted on the movement driving portion, and a second spaced position where the transfer member is spaced from the image bearing member in a state in which the load by the urging force is not exerted on the movement driving portion.
