Smart Motorways and Greener Aviation Fuel

BBC Radio 4 - You and Yours, Smart Motorways and Greener Aviation Fuel

Concerns over the UK's smart motorways, plus greener fuels in the aviation industry.

Peter White hears concerns over the UK's smart motorways one year after their introduction. Plus will the use of greener fuels in the aviation industry make air fares cheaper?

One year since their introduction, Peter White looks at "smart " motorways where the hard shoulder sometimes opens as a lane and the speed limit keeps on changing. The trouble is, a lot of drivers are being caught speeding on them.
The new greener fuel being used by the aviation industry- but will it see our air fares rise or fall?
And Tom Robinson and his biggest fan meet at the Abbey Road Studios to make sweet music.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
