York Region vivaNext Rapidways [electronic resource] : funded & underway project profile.

"Currently, York Region operates bus service along Highway 7 and Yonge Street in mixed traffic. Rapid transit in York Region will help shape communities and provide people with more transportation options. The new viva 'rapidways' will be a BRT system where viva vehicles will travel in dedicated bus lanes in the centre of the road for the majority of the route. The routes will also connect with other regional rapid transit, including, GO Transit, Brampton's Züm service and the TTC's Spadina subway extension. New bus rapid transit service will be available on two significant corridors: east-west along Highway 7, and a north-south along Yonge Street, with a small east-west route along Davis Drive in Newmarket. The rapidways will connect residents to important destinations in York Region, including the Southlake Regional Health Centre in Newmarket, the Vaughan Metropolitan Centre and a proposed transit-pedestrian mall in Markham."
