## Southmead Hospital Car Parks and Entrances

Public parking at Southmead Hospital has limited capacity and can become very busy between 10am and midday, according to Bristol and North Bristol NHS Trust information (bristolft.nhs.uk).

The hospital map identifies the main entrance for inpatients and lists Southmead Hospital as BS10 5NB (North Bristol NHS Trust, nbt.nhs.uk). The map also marks Park View, theatres and MRI, which helps drivers choose the relevant part of the site before arrival (North Bristol NHS Trust, nbt.nhs.uk). The Central Delivery Suite is at Southmead Road, Westbury-on-Trym, Bristol BS10 5NB (North Bristol NHS Trust, nbt.nhs.uk).

## Arriving for Appointments and Urgent Care at Southmead

Southmead Hospital is at 18 Longford Avenue in Southmead, near Merry Hill. Public parking can be especially pressured between 10am and midday (bristolft.nhs.uk), making an earlier arrival useful for appointments scheduled in that period. The hospital map distinguishes the main inpatient entrance from other clinical areas, including Park View, theatres and MRI (North Bristol NHS Trust, nbt.nhs.uk).

For maternity visitors, the Central Delivery Suite information places the facility on Southmead Road in Westbury-on-Trym, Bristol BS10 5NB (North Bristol NHS Trust, nbt.nhs.uk). Drivers attending maternity care should therefore use the Central Delivery Suite directions rather than relying only on the general inpatient entrance. The hospital map also gives the postcode BS10 5NB for the site (North Bristol NHS Trust, nbt.nhs.uk).

## Residential Parking Around Longford Avenue and Southmead

Southmead Hospital is in a residential part of Southmead, near Merry Hill, with access centred on Longford Avenue. The hospital’s public parking has limited capacity (bristolft.nhs.uk), so leaving a vehicle on nearby residential streets is not a reliable substitute for using an authorised space.

Drivers should keep clear of staff-only hospital car parks, which the hospital explicitly says are not for public parking (bristolft.nhs.uk). The hospital map shows the main entrance, Park View, theatres and MRI as separate destinations within the site (North Bristol NHS Trust, nbt.nhs.uk), so stopping outside an entrance or clinical area can obstruct access even when the intended visit is brief.

## Parksy Spaces Close to Southmead Hospital

The closest listed option is a parking space 138 yd away at £6.25 an hour. A second space near Bristol Plastic Surgery is 223 yd away and costs £6.80 a day, making it better suited to a full-day appointment or a long visit than an hourly booking.

Further options include secure parking in Bartholomews Square, 0.6 mi away at £4.19 an hour, and a driveway space 0.6 mi away at £2.10 a day. The lower daily rate makes the driveway practical for extended visits or hospital shift workers. Two 24/7 spaces are also listed: one at Wellington Hill, BS7, 0.7 mi away at £6.25 an hour, and one on Maple Road, BS7, 0.9 mi away at £6.25 an hour.

## Walking and Public Transport to Southmead Hospital

Filton Abbey Wood railway station is the nearest station, 1.4 mi from Southmead Hospital and a 28 min walk. The station is therefore a realistic option for visitors who can manage the walk and want to avoid the hospital’s limited public parking capacity.

The hospital map gives the site postcode as BS10 5NB and identifies the main inpatient entrance, Park View, theatres and MRI (North Bristol NHS Trust, nbt.nhs.uk). Visitors travelling by public transport can use those landmarks to orientate themselves after reaching the hospital grounds. The Central Delivery Suite is separately identified on Southmead Road, Westbury-on-Trym, Bristol BS10 5NB (North Bristol NHS Trust, nbt.nhs.uk).
