  • Progressive denotes embracing or advocating progress, change, improvement, or reform.
  • Streaming refers to the continuous transmission and playback of data, such as audio or video, over the internet.
  • Bustling describes a lively and busy atmosphere characterised by energetic and noisy activity.

Therefore, the correct answer is, abeyant.
