In this lecture, held at part of Monash University's Research Month, Infrastructure Australia Chair Sir Rod Eddington will discuss how we can address congestion in a world where concerns about climate change are growing and the big decisions that need to be made now.
Sir Rod will also reflect on his international experience and a recent report to the Victorian Government outlining an $18 billion blueprint to improve transport links between Melbourne's eastern and western suburbs.
What: Sir Rod Eddington to address Monash University forum
When: Thursday 28 August, 6 pm to 7 pm
Where: Village Roadshow Theatrette, State Library of Victoria, Corner of Swanston and La Trobe Streets (Entrance 3, Latrobe Street), Melbourne.
