Miles specialises in zero emission mobility and transport planning, advising local government on sustainable transport infrastructure deployment and climate aligned investment planning.

Miles has recently delivered an InnovateUK programme, funded by the Centre for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CCAV), producing a business case for the commercial deployment of connected and automated mobility (CAM) in the Orkney Islands.
