VIVA + York Region Transit

Don't follow VIVA too much. Are there still plans to construct a BRT along Major Mackenzie? Be nice to have a rapid transit connection between Maple GO and Richmond Hill GO. Essentially connecting the Barrie and RH GO lines.
It would also connect to Mount Joy GO (or possibly a new GO station at 48/Major Mac), adding the Stouffville line to that list.

Plans for any BRT on MM are typically limited between Jane and Leslie. While there are maps that show ideas for extension east and west, that will happen a long time from now.

Sylvia has been lobbying Brampton to have the Bovaird BRT plans continue to at least Highway 50, which should enhance the Major Mac West extension numbers.
 
YRT is providing some additional service for the Taylor Swift Eras Tour, namely:
  • There will be a shuttle that will run express between Finch Terminal and the Richmond Hill Centre.
  • Extra service on route 20, Viva Orange and Viva Purple, with extended hours on the Viva routes.
  • Additional staff at the Richmond Hill Centre, Finch Terminal, and SmartVMC Terminal.
  • Some Mobility On-Request Paratransit vehicles will be on standby to provide service if needed.

The express from Finch to Richmond Hill should be a normal thing.
