Vivanext (corporately styled "vivaNext") is the next phase of the Viva Rapid Transit System which serves York Region, Ontario, Canada. The Vivanext plan includes two subway extensions, two light rail transit (LRT) lines, and a bus rapid transit (BRT) network featuring dedicated lanes (rapidways) for Viva vehicles. According to its website,〔( vivanext )〕 the Vivanext plan will revitalize communities, help manage employment and population growth, and improve travel times across York Region. ==Rapidways== Often referred to as a transitway or busway by other transit authorities, the term "rapidway" is used to describe the bus-only lanes being designed as part of the bus rapid transit component of the Vivanext plan.〔( vivanext FAQs )〕 The proposed benefit of the rapidways is that Viva vehicles will be able travel faster than before, by avoiding the congestion associated with mixed traffic. While most Vivanext rapidways will be located in the centre median of roadways, they may also be located curbside to accommodate certain conditions. In Markham Centre, rapidways will be constructed through a pedestrian mall. Rapidways projects funded for construction in York Region are located on Davis Drive, Highway 7 and Yonge Street.〔(CP24.com )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vivanext」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
