Transit in Markham Centre

Viva route map

 

Markham Centre is an opportunity to change the way we do things and to deliver the Smart Growth vision for the future. Building Markham Centre as a compact, mixed-use transit-supportive downtown is part of the solution. Markham Centre forms the catalyst for improving existing roads, building new road connections, providing alternative rapid-transit facilities, providing new opportunities to live, work and play in the same community, and supporting less reliance on the automobile as the primary mode of transportation.
