About this episode

Walker Corporation has scrapped its $1.3B Toondah Harbour project due to environmental concerns after a lengthy battle.

Walker Corporations $1.3B Toondah Harbour project, aimed at revamping a key ferry link to North Stradbroke Island, has been scrapped after a 12-year battle due to environmental concerns. The project faced opposition from locals and groups over its location in protected areas teeming with wildlife. The company plans to revisit infrastructure and housing ideas without harming nature, while the Redland City Mayor and activists from the Koala Action Group celebrate the decision. The focus now shifts to a simpler ferry terminal upgrade that aligns with the citys growth. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
