Bristol is a city, unitary authority, and ceremonial county in the South West of England, 169km west of London. With a population over 410,000 and urban area of over 550,000 it is England's sixth most populous city.
The city is served by two principal railway stations, Bristol Temple Meads located in the centre of the city, and Bristol Parkway serving the north of the city. Bristol Parkway is the most convenient station to the Bristol Urological Institute, approximately 15 minutes away by car.
The city is connected by road on an east–west axis from London to Wales by the M4 motorway, and on a north–southwest axis from Birmingham to Exeter by the M5 motorway.
Bristol is also served by its own airport, Bristol International (BRS), at Lulsgate. It is possible to fly by Easyjet from many European cities and, in addition, we are linked to the large hubs of Amsterdam, Brussels, Paris and Frankfurt. The BUI is approximately a 40 minute drive from the airport.
During rush-hour Bristol can become very congested and travel across the city can result in delays.
