From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Viva Green, or the Don Mills-Unionville-Cornell line, is a bus rapid transit line in York Region, north of Toronto, Canada.
There are twelve stations on the Viva Green line, plus five proposed (from south-west to north-east):
- -Vivastations south of Steeles Avenue-
- *peak periods only
- **off-peak periods only
- Proposed Vivastations
Service to Unionville GO Station began October 16, 2005. Peak service to McCowan began November 20, 2005. Unionville GO Station is now served only during off-peak times, and will bypass the station during peak times. If you want to go to Unionville GO Station during peak times, you should get off at Enterprise Road and walk there, or take Viva Pink to Unionville GO Station. Service east of McCowan to Cornell is to begin on July 1, 2007. There may also be an extension to Markham By-Pass in peak periods and a relocation of Enterprise Vivastation.

- Don Mills Station to Warden: every 15 minutes on peak periods
