programme before with her. from the outset, we questioned the ministers the logic of removing a hard shoulder. i remember even before the m4 smart motorway was constructed having a meeting with chris grayling who was transport secretary at the time and saying, transport secretary, what would you do if you broke down on a smart motorway without a hard shoulder? he said, i would get out of the car. minister, he would probably be killed if that happened. it is the basic logic we have been arguing against. no matter how good the technology is to spot because, you are still more at risk if you break down in a live lane. we have been exposing that for years. there are reports that sections of the m1 there are reports that sections of the mi north of nottingham that actually says, if they had put in more emergency refuge areas at the

time, the risks would have been reduced. i think the scandal here is that, basically, motorways have been expanded on the cheap and safety considerations have not always been at the top of the agenda. the transport select committee said these new smart waterways allow 1600 vehicles every hour to travel, and it's vital on busy days. this was vital to ease congestion, to allow people to get around faster and more easily. is there a better way to do this? ., , easily. is there a better way to do this? . , ., , ., this? certainly we would question whether smart _ this? certainly we would question whether smart motorways - this? certainly we would question i whether smart motorways worked this? certainly we would question i whether smart motorways worked in terms of congestion. all our surveys show almost 40% of drivers do not

use the inside lane which would have been the hard shoulder on smart motorways because they are petrified that there may be a broken down vehicle ahead so you are not getting that extra 25% capacity. and also when there is an incident on a smart motorway, because there is no hard shoulder have to close at least one lane, often two lanes which causes massive delays, not only to drivers but also to the emergency services getting through to an incident or a crash because there is no hard shoulder for crash because there is no hard shoulderfor the crash because there is no hard shoulder for the emergency services to go down and that again has its own safety implications. what we said in our letter to the prime minister last week is that they should also look at existing smart motorways, reinstate the hard shoulder but alongside it, run a hard—hitting lane discipline campaign. there are too many drivers who hog the middle lane on the

outside lane and that reduces capacity so we don't believe, even on the capacity grounds, you could get better use and better efficiency from the current motorway network evenif from the current motorway network even if you reintroduce the hard shoulder. ~ . , , even if you reintroduce the hard shoulder. ~ , ., ., , shoulder. was this also a problem with education? _ shoulder. was this also a problem with education? people _ shoulder. was this also a problem with education? people did - shoulder. was this also a problem with education? people did not. shoulder. was this also a problem | with education? people did not feel safe enough knowing what the rules were, should i or should i not be in this lane, what does the sign so? had the education been better around a change to how the motorways are used, that could have avoided some problems? i used, that could have avoided some roblems? ~ u, ., used, that could have avoided some roblems? ~ ., problems? i think education can alwa s problems? i think education can always help _ problems? i think education can always help and _ problems? i think education can always help and first _ problems? i think education can always help and first and - problems? i think education can . always help and first and foremost, you do not want to break down on any motorway, whether it's smart or not. people running out of fuel, electric charge, having their cars in poor condition, bad tyres etc, things like that can be alleviated but i

think when it comes to it, if your car has a chronic failure and it stops in a live lane, no matter what the education and the education is clear, keep your seat belt on, put your hazard lights on, put other lights on and dial 999. if you break down in a live lane, it is an emergency. wejust feel down in a live lane, it is an emergency. we just feel it is wrong putting drivers in that situation. at the aa, i have listened to many harrowing calls from members who have broken down in smart motorways on live lines and they are then reliant on the technology putting out a red x and closing the lane down and reports of other drivers following that and that is not always the case.— following that and that is not always the case. briefly, if you will come _ always the case. briefly, if you will come about _ always the case. briefly, if you will come about is _ always the case. briefly, if you will come about is the - always the case. briefly, if you will come about is the answerl will come about is the answer because 10% of the motorways will not be turned back, there those already converted the government says will stay for now. we

arsenal will take a three—point advantage into their premier league game at west ham today after manchester city won a tenth straight game in all competitions beating leicester 3—1 at the etihad. they kept up the pressure on the leaders thanks to two more goals from erling haaland that has him at 32 in the league. that equals mo salah�*s scoring record for a 38—game season. leicester remain second bottom. 0lly watkins is the other permier league striker in form as is his club aston villa. he got two as they won 3—0 against newcastle. villa stay sixth but are just six points off the top four. tottenham missed the chance to go level on points with newcastle who are still third as they lost 3—2 at home to bournemouth. dango 0uattara scored his first premier league goal in the fifth minute of injury time. and frank lampard has now lost all three games since becoming chelsea interim manager — his side beaten 2—1 by brighton — a fantastic goal from julio enciso sealing the three points for another team threatening the champions league places. brighton are seven points off the top four with two games in hand.

a win for celtic at kilmarnock this lunchtime will re—establish a 12—point lead at the top of the scottish premiership. rangers narrowed the gap to nine by beating st mirren. it had been 2—2 at ibrox but three late goals gave them a 5—2 win and secures them at least second place and a potential route into the champions league. chelsea and aston villa meet later for the right to face manchester united in the women's fa cup final. united will be there for the first time after coming through a dramatic semi—final with wsl strugglers brighton. substitute rachel williams coming up with the winner with just two minutes remaining to give the league leaders a 3—2 victory. it means nothing, it is not a day out, _ it means nothing, it is not a day out, i_ it means nothing, it is not a day out, i want _ it means nothing, it is not a day out, i want to be here to win it. we've _ out, i want to be here to win it. we've got— out, i want to be here to win it. we've got to improve and not performance but the reality is it is good _ performance but the reality is it is good to _ performance but the reality is it is good to be — performance but the reality is it is good to be there but i want to when and make _ good to be there but i want to when and make sure we give these fans what _ and make sure we give these fans what they— and make sure we give these fans what they want as well.

they were the two unbeaten teams heading into their women's six nations match but it's england who still have the chance of winning another grand slam after beating wales 59—3. in front of a record crowd at cardiff arms park — england scored 9 tries to ruin wales' 100 percent record and chances of a triple crown. england are chasing a fifth successive title and remain top of the table with three convincing bonus—point wins. in the day's other game, italy beat ireland by 2a points to 7. sofia stefan�*s superb try in the first half helping them on the way. ireland stay bottom after losing all three of their games. scotland are in france later. and he was talked up as the third best heavyweight in the world before his latest fight but there a shock loss for the british boxer joe joyce last night stopped by china's zhilei zhang at the copper box in london. joyce's world—title ambitions were derailed as his unbeaten professional run came to an end. he was troubled early on before the ringside doctor twice had to inspect his swollen eye. the referee called it off in the sixth round leaving zhang promising to fight for the sport's

heavyweight belts instead. that is what happens when you take risks. sometimes it doesn't go your way and i thought i would breeze through victory and disappointed that i didn't and i couldn't get away from his left hand and i got nailed again and again on the eye. i need to go and review the stuff and come back stronger. as we mentioned earlier, it is a tough old fight in boxing, joejoyce potentially out of the reckoning. we saw it happen with anthonyjoshua winning the titles, then losing them, then winning them back and then losing the fights and suddenly

western england, western scotland and some in northern ireland for patchy rain and drizzle. misty over the hills and around the coasts, it will stay that way all day but many will stay that way all day but many will see the skies left and some breaks appear in the cloud in northern ireland setting up some showers but brighter weather here this afternoon and sunshine in northern scotland, the sunshine hazy in england. we see the highest temperatures in the north, may be reaching 17 degrees in the afternoon but with hazy sunshine in eastern england, high pollen levels and an isolated shower. this evening and overnight lots of club remaining in place. there will be a light rain and drizzle especially through parts of england and southern scotland. many will be dry and mild, coolest across east anglia, we could see a mist and fog tomorrow morning. as mr cloudy and misty tomorrow for some, still a bit of light rain and drizzle around, most of us have a

dry day, the greyness brightens up in the sunshine coming through. the best of the sunshine in eastern england and we could see mist and low clouds roll in here later and that will drop the temperature drastically but elsewhere, it will feel more with highs of 18 possible in northern scotland and we see some of the best of the weather here over the next few days. closer to this area of high pressure, and the further away you are the stronger the pace and with that coming from the pace and with that coming from the north sea, notice the temperatures in the north sea are pretty chilly and that will influence how things feel especially along the eastern coasts. 0n along the eastern coasts. on tuesday, the piece starts to pick up, morning mistand tuesday, the piece starts to pick up, morning mist and folk clearing but bringing in cloud across the southern half of england and wales with some showers. most will have a dry day, temperatures down on the weekend, the exception western scotland where it should be another very pleasant day. the breeze picks

up very pleasant day. the breeze picks up on wednesday, slightly brazier, western and northern scotland the sunniest conditions, cloud breaking up sunniest conditions, cloud breaking up through the day, the chance of some showers, mainly across the west. temperatures around 12—15 , down on what we have over the next couple of days but when you are in the sunshine it should be unpleasant. back to give. but not if you are in the sea with those temperatures, it will not feel pleasant. it is the coldest time of the year but you have to be very brave. i do like a little graphic, but there is no way i am having a tip! | but there is no way i am having a tip! i would wait until october when they peek! good advice, certainly looking drier. matt, thank you so much. it is 8:43am. it's 20—years since one of the first efforts to reintroduce beavers into the wild in the uk began in kent.

during that time, the creatures have been sinking their teeth into trees, plants and soil — and have transformed the landscape in the process. chrissie reidy can tell us more. beavers rarely put their feet up and that's why 20 years ago they were reintroduced here at ham fen to transform the land back to wetland. it was drying out, it almost had dried up. the trees you in the background, that small bridge that was just over there, you used to be able to walk across. you can't do that anymore. that is a wetland site now. we can see reeds but it is criss—crossed with all sorts of beaver channels and pools and hollows, and all filled with water. by turning to nature, this drone footage shows how the beaver has created meanders in the stream, allowing other habitats to develop. we don't say "beavering away" for nothing. the beaver really is a grafter, from building dams to digging canals, transporting water, even slowing water down. the beaver is supersmart.

the beaver have created canals, the beaver have made dams, they have felled trees and they have brought water all around the site. and in doing so, a lot of the big trees that were sucking all the moisture out of the site, drying it up, have started die off. but they have been creating habitats in their own right, standing deadwood there for over 20 years, but what's taken its place is lots and lots of willow. willowjust happens to be the beaver�*s favourite foodstuffs, especially in winter when times are tough, and also what they build dams from, build their lodges from. it is hoped the success of this project in this part of kent will go some way to help restore other wetlands around the country with beavers doing what they do best. chrissie reidy, bbc news.
