City of Bristol
From 1974 to 1996 City of Bristol formed part of the county of Avon, which was abolished
in 1996 and the area split between the Bath and North East Somerset, City of Bristol,
North Somerset and South Gloucestershire. The Avon name is still used for some purposes.
Bristol is England's sixth and the United Kingdom's eighth most populous city and
is the largest centre of culture, employment and education in the region. Its prosperity
has been linked with the sea since its earliest days. In more recent years the economy
has depended on the creative media, electronics and aerospace industries, and the
city centre docks have been regenerated as a centre of heritage and culture.
Bristol's excellent road infrastructure was altered dramatically in the 1960s and
1970s with the development of the M4 and M5 motorways, which meet at an interchange
just north of the city and give the city direct motorway links with London, Cardiff,
Exeter and Birmingham. With two principal railways stations, Bristol offers excellent
rail access to many parts of the UK.
