First we hear from our regular transport guru John McPherson with a summary of the plans for a $50b orbital rail link around outer Melbourne. Then we are joined via phone by Peter McCallum from the Mackay Conservation Group, who updates us on the realities of the $444 million Great Barrier Reef donation from the Federal Government. Our final guest in the studio is Claire Hetzel from the vibrant community garden Peppertree Place, who updates us about the important work of Peppertree, the closure risk to the group, and what can be done to Save Peppertree Place.
