Transport interchanges and related environments create a special architectural challenge and instigate social and political discussion. The contemporary Urban Gateway has increased vitality as we move into the new decade; this volume highlights the strength of its progress. Articles investigate political issues and emotive forces. The dynamics are confronted and the pragmatics explored by innovative projects from around the world.
