Viva Silver is a bus rapid transit route planned by York Region Transit to operate in Regional Municipality of York, Ontario, Canada.[1] It is proposed as part of the Viva Rapid Transit service, with a connection to Vaughan Metropolitan Centre station on the Line 1 Yonge–University subway in Toronto.
The planned route is from the Vaughan Metropolitan Centre Terminal north along Jane Street to Major Mackenzie Drive, then east to Richmond Hill GO Station. It will include a transit signal priority system.[2]
The route is part of York Region Transit's "frequent transit network" enhancements, in which Jane Street, Leslie Street, and Major Mackenzie Drive are considered top priority transit corridors for 2016.[3] Frequency of York Region Transit rush hour bus service operating on those corridors will be progressively increased before implementation of the Viva service in order to increase ridership.[3] The expected route service frequency is 10 minutes.[4] When first opened, the route is expected to have curbside stops while dedicated BRT lanes would be installed later.
Implementation of this route will require capital costs of about CA$23 million in 2017, and will cost about CA$6 million annually to operate.[5] Service will require a fleet of 10 Viva buses.[5]
