Read moreFiona’s work involves scoping, designing and delivering transport solutions that support decarbonisation, encourage best use of our transport network’s capacity, and help to create better places. She specialises in freight strategy and planning, which includes developing freight strategies for local and sub-national authorities; facilitating co-operation between the freight and public sectors; and the evaluation of initiatives for cleaner and more efficient goods movement.
