AB  - <jats:p>        &lt;p&gt;Understanding the evolution of interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) as they propagate through the heliosphere is essential in forecasting space weather severity. Much of our knowledge of ICMEs has been gained using in-situ measurements from single spacecraft, although the increasing number of missions in the inner heliosphere has led to an increase in multi-spacecraft studies improving our understanding of the global structure of ICMEs. Whilst most such recent studies have focused on the inner heliosphere within 1 AU, Juno cruise phase data provides a new opportunity to study ICME evolution over greater distances. We present analysis of ICMEs observed in-situ both by Juno and at least one other spacecraft within 1 AU to investigate their evolution as they propagate through the heliosphere. Investigation of the sheath region and timing considerations between spacecraft allows for the general shape of the shock front to be reconstructed. Combining in-situ observations and results of flux rope fitting techniques determines the global picture of the ICME as it propagates. However, effects on in-situ observations due to radial evolution and due to the longitudinal separation between multi-spacecraft remain hard to separate. We note the importance of the interplanetary environment in which the ICME propagates and the need for caution in radial alignment studies. &amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;        </jats:p>
