How does access to transport impact our lives? When designing on a macro scale, what is the process in which the micro experiences of the individual are considered? How are the needs of the commuter balanced with those of the community?

This panel discussion explores the social and environmental benefits of macro transport infrastructure through a selection of notable Victorian rail and urban design projects, including Reservoir and Frankston Stations.
