    Hidden Valley
    Aug 27 2021
    Internet access might be something city dwellers take for granted. In town camps and remote communities across Australia, just sending an email isn’t always straight forward. In this episode we visit Hidden Valley, a town camp in Alice Springs. While Hidden Valley struggles with satellite internet, the Alice Springs suburbs just across the road have new fibre optic connections. This is the latest chapter in Hidden Valley’s long struggle for local infrastructure.
