Summary

Today’s episode is a panel discussion held at the recent Outback Highway Development Company Annual General Meeting. We hear from Tannis Godfrey, from Tobermorey Station; Kerryn Santucci, the Logistics Manager for Oz Minerals in Western Australia on the Great Central Road; Mike Batchelor, the Business Development Officer for Qube Logistics; David Elliot, Chairman of the Australian Age of Dinosaurs at Winton in Queensland; and Ben Hewitt, the Chief Operations Officer for Hewitt Cattle Company. They all talk about the Outback Way and the value a sealed road will provide to their businesses or the tourism expansion, and also some of the issues they’re currently facing due to the gravel. So it’s a fascinating discussion for both the pastoral industry, the mining industry, logistics, tourism and the cattle industry.
