Vivastations are stops on the Viva bus rapid transit system of York Region Transit, which provides service to the inhabitants of the Regional Municipality of York, immediately north of the City of Toronto in Ontario, Canada. Each of these stations has a ticket vending machine and a ticket validator as well as a display screen that notifies passengers when the next vehicle is expected.

Other Vivastations are assembled here to give an unbroken record of the entire system, because, although most stations have an entry of their own, some were deemed to be not notable enough to deserve a separate article. Many of the stations here were deleted for that lack of notability, and may not be easily restored without sufficient reason.
