The York University Busway is the collective name for a series of bus lanes and bus only roadways leading from Downsview station to York University, in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is used by the Toronto Transit Commission's 196 York University Rocket and York Region Transit's Viva Orange bus rapid transit routes in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The busway was constructed to address over-crowding and reliability issues on the route 196 York U Rocket. The busway increased the average speed of route 196 by 41% from 23.3km/h to 32.8km/h, making it the third fastest TTC route at rush hour, after the Scarborough RT and route 192 Airport Rocket. It is now faster than any of the subway lines. Due to the savings in time from using the busway, service frequency on route 196 was increased from every 2 minutes 15 seconds to every 2 minutes while reducing the number of buses operating on the route from 20 to 16.〔 == Overview == Going north from Downsview station to York University, the segments are as follows: * Allen Road / Dufferin Street - Bus lanes on regular road: 2.7km * York University Busway - Dedicated bus only road within Finch Hydro Corridor: 2.1km * Murray Ross Parkway - Mixed traffic: 0.1km * "busway" - Dedicated bus only road within York University: 1.0km * York Boulevard - Mixed traffic: 0.2km * York University Commons 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「York University Busway」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
