AS fuel costs continue to shake the city, the Journal has put together a list of petrol stations offering the lowest prices in and around Salisbury.

With data taken from comparison site PetrolPrices, there has been little change since prices recorded yesterday.

There has however been a slight fall in prices at the pump since the start of the week.

BP, Downton Road - 157.9p for unleaded - 168.9p for Diesel

Murco, High Post Filling Station - 157.9p for unleaded - 168.9p for Diesel

Tesco Extra, Southampton Road - 158.9p for unleaded - 160.9p for Diesel

Shell, Wilton Road - 161.9p for unleaded - 171.9p for Diesel

BP, London Road - 162.9p for unleaded - 165.9p for Diesel

Shell, Waitrose - 164.9p for unleaded - 174.9p for Diesel

BP, Wilton Road - 166.9p for unleaded - 179.9p for Diesel

Esso, Southampton Road - 168.9p for unleaded - 176.9p for Diesel

Reductions in wholesale fuel costs since the start of the week “offer the hope that pump prices may now level off and hopefully fall”, AA fuel price spokesman Luke Bosdet said.

He added: “Ironically, motorists rushing to fill up and beat pump price surges the weekend before last may have accelerated pump price rises, as stock turned over faster than normal and higher costs worked their way through to the pump sooner than normal.

“The squeeze on the finances of families with cars continues but the apocalyptic pump price predictions seem much less likely to happen.”

Meanwhile, support is growing for a petition calling for fuel duty and VAT on fuel to be reduced by 40 per cent for two years.

Nearly 50,000 people have signed the petition posted on the UK Government and Parliament website.
