'''[[York Region Transit]] 7201-7205''' are [[Van Hool]] [[Van Hool AG300|AG300]] buses, built and delivered in 2007.
'''[[York Region Transit]] 7201-7205''' were [[Van Hool]] [[Van Hool AG300|AG300]] buses built and delivered in 2007. They were painted in [[Viva]] colours and used exclusively in Viva service.  


In order to address the overcrowding issue on Viva [[VIVA Blue|Blue]], more articulated buses were needed. This order was approved in late February 2006, purchased for a total of $4.1 million. $1.4 million of this order was covered by the then-called Ontario Transit Vehicles Program, while $2.6 million was covered by gas tax revenues.
