Petrol prices at a busy service station along the M4 have risen above £2 per litre, as motorists are warned that more forecourts could follow this summer.
As the RAC predicts that average petrol prices will hit that milestone this summer, data firm Experian Catalist reports that pumps in some places are already charging that much. Wiltshire Live reports that this includes Leigh Delamere, the motorway services between Bristol and Swindon.
A BP garage displayed the price of unleaded petrol at Leigh Delamare at 11.45am on June 8 was 202.9p per litre, while diesel reached 204.9p. The latest UK average petrol prices have risen to 180.7p, while diesel has increased to 177.9p, according to the AA.
