Doctoral research

My research is considering whether and how English regional devolution shapes transport equality outcomes, using a mixed methods approach. I combine difference-in-difference statistical methods to explore the overall association between devolution and public transport outcomes, with in-depth qualitative research case studies to explore how devolution has shaped transport policymaking in English regions.

A submission based on the empirical part of my paper, titled "Levelling Down? Regional devolution and public transport accessibility in England", was awarded the Public Administration Prize at the UKAPA 2026 Annual Conference's Doctoral Colloquium, for the most publishable doctoral paper.
