Keele-Finch is a Vivastation on York Region's Viva bus rapid transit system, north of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It opened on October 16, 2005, at the intersection of Keele Street and Finch Avenue in North York, Ontario. It is located in the Viva Orange line.
Since this Vivastation is south of York Region, passengers may only board Viva by the Northbound platform, while the Southbound platform is used only for passengers alighting at Keele-Finch, as well as for passengers who want to travel to Downsview Station by boarding the Toronto Transit Commission 107 Keele North bus.
When the Spadina line of the Toronto Transit Commission is extended to York University (TTC), Steeles West (TTC), and Vaughan Corporate Centre (TTC), service to Downsview Station will be discontinued by Viva, and this Vivastation will be closed, as the subway would replace this service. TTC's Finch West subway station will take this Vivastation's place, as part of the new main transportation corridor from Vaughan Corporate Centre to Downsview Station.
