This decrease is primarily attributed to an oversupply in the wholesale market, which has driven down the price of Brent crude oil.
In south east London, petrol stations are offering competitive rates, with Sainsbury’s in Crayford leading the pack at just 127.9p per litre.
Moving forward, price competition among local petrol stations will be essential for drivers to take advantage of these lower prices.
Supermarkets like Morrisons have taken the lead, consistently undercutting competitors such as Sainsbury’s and Tesco by more than a penny per litre.
