About me

I am a Professor of Transport and Director of the University's Active Travel Academy. I am interested in sustainable mobilities and especially active transport, and have published widely in this area. For more of my publications please see my Google Scholar page. I regularly speak about my research to academic, policy, and other audiences, through keynotes, plenary talks, workshops, and presentations, and on social media.

Teaching

I teach on the MSc Transport Planning and Management, which I led from January 2013-July 2016. Modules I teach or have taught include Research Methods/ Dissertation, Analysing Transport Data, Transport Policy and Politics, and Traffic and Streets. I currently supervise seven PhD students, six as Director of Studies.
