First week back on air in 2021, this transport week we chat to regular guest John McPherson.

Topics include the Victorian government's announcement of 450 extra train services and off-peak fare discounts, the "15-minute city", mega transport projects (including in the Suburban Rail Loop and the North East Link toll road), as well as level crossing updates.

Find out more about the North East Link and join in protests against the project:
