Are you excited? We are. Summer is the time of year when vivaNext gets a lot done. This summer, work on our Davis Drive rapidway in Newmarket is entering the home stretch, and we\u2019re excited to see it taking shape. We\u2019re also widening roads and paving in Vaughan on Highway 7 West, and last but not least we are putting the final touches on our Highway 7 rapidway in Markham in preparation for the Pan Am Games.<\/p>\n<p>Summer is a great time for you to get things done too \u2013 important things like swimming, cycling, camping and barbecues.<\/p>\n<p>Warm weather and no school mean carefree days, which is why it\u2019s more important than ever to drive carefully. Children and teens will be running around having the time of their lives. Sometimes they run into the streets without looking, skateboard on busy streets, or do other things you wouldn&#8217;t expect. It&#8217;s motorists&#8217; job to be extra vigilant, helping our kids stay safe.<\/p>\n<p>In our busy lives, driving sometimes feels like a race from one place to the next. Is it really worth the rush? Sidestepping rules of the road by talking on a cell phone or rolling through a stop sign can be tempting. But, take your time. Slow down and enjoy the summer. Keep your attention on the road and watch for construction detours, speed signs and children.<\/p>\n<p>And if you find driving is becoming a little tedious, you can try Viva, which is running throughout York Region. As you know, six kilometres of bus rapid transit are already running in Markham from Bayview to Warden, providing travel times that are as much as 35% faster, so experience it firsthand.\u00a0 This route will be a fast, convenient\u00a0alternative to driving your car throughout the Pan Am Games this summer.<\/p>\n<p>However you choose to get around, we hope you make the most out of your summer &#8211; drive with care and be safe!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>School\u2019s wrapping up and summer\u2019s here!
