Unionville GO Station is a train and bus station in the GO Transit network located in Markham, Ontario, Canada. It is a stop on the Stouffville commuter railway line.
The station, which was renovated and opened in April 2005, is accessed by a service road from Kennedy Road north of Highway 407.
[edit] Viva
Unionville Station is also served by York Region's Viva bus rapid transit system. Bus service began on 16 October 2005, with buses stopping near Kennedy Road at the railway station. Unionville Station is the eastern terminus of off-peak services on the Viva Green line to Don Mills Station, and of peak Viva Pink services to Richmond Hill Centre and Finch Station.
Because the nearby Enterprise Drive was not finished when Viva services in the area began, this station served as a temporary Vivastation for the Viva Purple line until 19 November 2005, with both Viva Purple and Viva Green buses having to go on a detour on Highway 407 nearby. Viva Pink services were added on 2 January 2006.
Although this is the eastern terminus station for the Viva Green line and the Viva Pink line, there are no multiRide ticket vending machines in there, and only oneRide ticket vending machines.
