Simon Swan

Simon Swan is a Global Solutions Director for New Mobility, shaping the next generation of sustainable, connected and future‑ready transport systems worldwide. With more than two decades of experience delivering transformative mobility, energy and infrastructure programmes, Simon specialises in helping cities, operators and global organisations navigate the transition toward cleaner, smarter and more integrated mobility ecosystems.

His work spans mobility‑on‑demand, EV and alternative fuel strategies, connected and autonomous mobility, advanced air mobility (AAM), digital and data‑driven optimisation, and major‑event mobility strategy. He is passionate about designing solutions that are inclusive, autonomous, optimised, demand‑driven and fully integrated across modes, bridging the gap between sustainability ambition and operational reality.

Simon leads Arcadis’ global efforts across new mobility, supports international programmes on net‑zero transport, and contributes to global forums such as the World Business Council for Sustainable Development, where he advances the mobility pathway and accelerates fleet decarbonisation. He is also the creator of FUMIAF — the Future Urban Mobility Impact Assessment Framework — a structured global model that helps governments and operators evaluate the environmental, social, economic, digital and resilience impacts of emerging mobility solutions before deployment.

Across every project, Simon brings a strong belief that the future of mobility lies in integrated systems, data‑led decision‑making and responsible innovation, ensuring communities, cities and industries benefit from mobility that is not just technologically advanced — but equitable, resilient and genuinely sustainable.
