It is imperative addressed to usted, but expressed in the present subjunctive form.

So if you were to conjugate the tu form would it be "ve o vayas"? - radbushi, Oct 15, 2009
It will be "ve" in the imperative & "vayas" in the present subjunctive, but note that if the imperative is negative, no + present subjunctive is used, as in "no vayas". - Deanski, Oct 15, 2009
