Is that the Balmoral Road that is in Montpelier?

No it's in St Andrews but it's easy to tell where it is.

We walk 8mins to McDonald’s and board the 11:07 first west of england 70 service to Bristol, balmoral road arriving at 11:27 on Saturday.

We take the nine minute walk to the bus stop opposite Colston Girls School, where we board the 1221 First West of England South Glos Lynx service T2 to Aztec West (Roundabout), arriving there at 1303 on Saturday afternoon.
