THE PETROL and diesel prices in York are continuing to fluctuate as prices have slightly increased from last week.

The Press reported last week that the cheapest price for fuel was 154.7p for unleaded, down from 159.9p the week previously, and 170.7p for diesel, down from 177.9p, at Morrisons, Foss Island Road.

However this week, the cheapest price for fuel is 154.9p for petrol and 171.9p for diesel at Tesco, Tadcaster Road.

The most expensive place to fuel in York is Knavesmire service station, Tadcaster Road, 166.8p for petrol and 174.8p for diesel -  up from 167.8p for unleaded, but down from 182.9p for diesel at Co-op Boroughbridge Road last week.

Fuel prices hit a record high due to concerns over the reliability of supply amid the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

Later last month, Chancellor Rishi Sunak announced in the Spring Budget that fuel duty would be cut by 5p.
