The "devastating" deaths of two women might have never happened were it not for "dangerous" changes to the busiest and fastest motorways, according to their devastated family.
Sevim Uston, 49, and Ayse Uston, 68, tragically died after being hit by an articulated lorry on the 'smart' M25 motorway in 2018. Now, the government has scrapped the motorway scheme it spent rolling out over the last 10 years.
Planned new smart motorways have been scrapped by the government following years of concerns by motoring experts and campaigners. But dozens of lives have been lost on these stretches of motorway before getting to this point, amid claims the public has lost confidence in them.
