History

Although service has passed through this location since the launch of Viva on September 5, 2005, buses did not stop until Atkinson Street 1.7 km further south. A new station was built on the ramp connecting Bathurst Street to Highway 7 in order to provide a transfer point between Viva buses heading east on Highway 7 and local buses heading north on Bathurst. This station first opened on September 22, 2019, alongside 2.6 km of new rapidway lanes along Highway 7 between Bathurst Street and Yonge Street.
