Fuel Prices Surge Ahead of Summer Travel | Leicester News

from Leicester News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Fuel prices in the UK are surging ahead of summer travel, with petrol hitting 151p per litre and diesel close behind — driven by rising global oil costs tied to U.S.-Iran tensions. Despite a recent dip, prices are climbing again, adding nearly £9 for petrol and over £12 for diesel per tank compared to last summer. Only a few regions remain below the 150p average, and with 14 million drivers expected on the road this weekend, the squeeze is real — though a recent fuel duty cut keeps things from being even worse.
