As rapidway construction makes great progress along Highway 7, the areas that are under active construction will continue to change. That means drivers really need to pay attention to temporary lane markings, traffic signals and diversions, especially on a busy thoroughfare like Highway 7.
But one thing that’s remained unchanged is that you can still access all your favourite Highway 7 businesses throughout the construction period. Whether you’re shopping for holiday entertaining, meeting with friends for a meal, or finding special things to put under the tree, Highway 7 retailers and restaurants are open for regular business throughout vivaNext construction.
From time to time, construction activities will take place in front of business and plaza driveways. This may mean that access is slightly diverted for limited periods. But at those times our crews ensure that access to each business is kept open, and signs will be posted clearly showing drivers where to go.
As always, the best way to keep informed about where activities are going to be taking place and any temporary lane changes or diversions, is by signing up for our email updates at vivanext.com.
So this festive season, here’s one less thing to worry about: you have our commitment that Highway 7 businesses are open for business as usual, and are looking forward to helping make your holidays bright.
One reply on “Highway 7 is open for business”
A question I have asked viva employees over the last year, which they also wondered about, is what is the “uv rating” of the “blue glass” at the new stops along HWY 7.

DaleA: Hi,
The blue glass used on vivastation canopies is a laminate that includes a polyvinyl butyral (PVB) interlayer, which combined with the glass, filters up to 99% of UV radiation.
This is an additional layer of protection while waiting for transit; however health organizations recommend using sun protection measures such as sunscreen and protective clothing while spending time outdoors.
