Enterprise is a Vivastation on York Region's Viva bus rapid transit system, north of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Though named Enterprise Road on the on-board announcement system, the signs at the station only use "Enterprise". It is located in Markham, Ontario on Rivis Road between YMCA Boulevard, a short road linking Kennedy Road to Unionville GO Station (where, as the name implies, a YMCA resides), and Enterprise Boulevard, the main thoroughfare through the proposed Downtown Markham business centre. It serves the Viva Purple, Viva Green, and the Viva Pink lines, serving the GO Station during off-peak periods (During peak periods, Viva Pink serves the GO station directly, while it is bypassed by the other two lines).

This station, as well as Warden station, were planned to open on October 16, 2005. However, Enterprise Boulevard, had not been finished to connect between the GO Station and Kennedy station to the east, thus buses were forced to bypass both stations (Warden station is on Enterprise Boulevard) via Highway 407 ETR nearby. The opening of these two stations were delayed until Viva's Third Stage of openings on November 20, 2005, when Rivis Road was completed.

Relocation plan

Though originally planned to be relocated to the proposed Downtown Markham Centre west of its current location (presumably at Enterprise Boulevard and Birchmount Road, pending the latter's extension to Highway 7), development at Downtown Markham had slowed. Furthermore, Enterprise Boulevard had originally planned to be extended to Kennedy Road via Main Street Unionville, and a land dispute currently hinders the extension of Enterprise Boulevard from Rivis Road to Main Street Unionville. In any event, the present Enterprise station may be relocated if and when the Enterprise Boulevard extension is finished.
