Book excerpt: Swansea Terminal is the sequel to Robert's Lewis acclaimed debut, The Last Llanelli Train. Readers of the earlier novel may be surprised to discover that a sequel exists: after all P.I. Robin Llewellyn ended the first book as a terminal alcoholic pursued by killers. Well, he's back, but only just: as Swansea Terminal opens, Robin is homeless in Swansea, just another dosser intent on drinking himself into an early grave. He doesn't look in any state to stagger through another crime caper as twisted as The Last Llanelli Train ? but stagger through it he does. After all, Robin is the perfect patsy, and before long Swansea's dodgiest gangsters have found him a job ? one only a chronic alcoholic with nothing to lose would be crazy enough to take. Every bit as dark, funny and oddly poignant as The Last Llanelli Train, this is new British crime fiction at its very finest.

Download or read book Sustainability and the Design of Transport Interchanges written by Brian Edwards and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011-01-24 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The interchange is a new form of transport building which integrates into a single whole various modes of public transport, putting the passenger first (rather than the infrastructure). This book presents design principles for transport interchanges and offers analysis of best practice in the UK and abroad. The author demonstrates how this complex new building type integrates with the city, on the one hand, and with different types of transport on the other. In this integration design in both plan and section are important, as is urban and landscape design. The idea of ‘interchange’ is increasingly relevant as town planners, engineers and architects address the question of sustainable development with its emphasis on energy efficiency, social cohesion, access for the elderly, and urban regeneration.
