"Are bridges the holy grail of urban regeneration?
All this week, BBC News is looking at how the UK's cities and towns are being transformed by eye-catching new buildings, cultural centres, roads and other infrastructure.

In this video, writer and comedian Sanjeev Singh Kohli looks at the changing face of Glasgow."
