Transport Week

Wednesday, 7 October 2015 - 9:00am to 10:00am
The capitol 'H' is the mark that VicRoads' tag on the trees. It stands for 'Habitat' and indicates that the tree is a significant, hollow bearing, habitat tree. This does not protect the tree. It simply alerts the contractors to the possible presence of wildlife before they cut it down.

We discuss general transport issues with John McPherson. We also heard from Louise Costa from the campaign group RAGE Rushworth Action Group for the Environment. They are concerned that Vic Roads hasn't consulted their community, or even their shire council, before starting a project to widen the road in and out of town. To address the safety concerns the community would prefer to reduce the speed limit rather than remove trees.

Wednesday 9:00am to 10:00am
Urban environment issues, analysing government services, both federal and state and local campaigns.
