I am a project director and independent transport consultant, with a background as professional rail planner and transport economist. My experience over the last 30 years brings high level consulting expertise on major investment projects and specialist knowledge of the rail industry and high-speed rail. I have a strong commercial awareness combined with public sector client-side experience.
My transport planning consultancy experience encompasses my time with Atkins consultants (1992 – 2003) and with Mills Consultants, my own consultancy company (since 2006). Much of my work has focused on the UK railway sector, although I have also worked overseas in Eastern Europe and South-East Asia. As a specialist in high-speed rail, I was also a Director of Greengauge 21. My experience in the public sector has been invaluable in understanding what public sector clients really need from consultants and in creating links across the rail industry. At the Strategic Rail Authority (2003 – 2005) I established and led the SRA’s Regional Planning team, helping to ensure the railway’s plans reflected wider spatial and economic plans. More recently I have worked for the Department for Transport, Network Rail and Rail North designing, letting and managing rail franchise contracts. |
