Promenade Terminal is a York Region Transit and Viva terminal in York Region, Ontario, Canada. It is located in a fenced-off area of the parking lot at 1 Promenade Circle, at the intersection of North Promenade and Centre Street in Vaughan, Ontario, one block west of Bathurst Street and Centre Street. Unlike other transit stations colocated with shopping malls, such as Ottawa's Rideau Centre, there is no pedestrian access between the Prominade shopping mall and Prominade Terminal.
Recently, one multiride machine has been added in the terminal, to go along with the oneride machine, which is expected, because Promenade Terminal is a major terminal for Viva Purple services.
In the summer of 2005, Promenade Terminal was temporarily closed so that renovations could be made to the existing terminal. Bus stops were temporarily moved just beyond the station to North Promenade and Centre Street. Major reconstruction of the terminal included newly cemented platforms, modern and lit bus shelters, new and brighter lighting, and the installation of the Viva OneRide machine. The project was completed over the period of one month with the station reopening in August 2005.
