LONDON, Sept 30 (Reuters) - British gas stations are seeing
unprecedented demand despite additional deliveries of fuel and
there have been instances of staff receiving abuse, The Petrol
Retailers Association said on Thursday.
"PRA members are reporting that whilst they are continuing
to take further deliveries of fuel, this is running out quicker
than usual due to unprecedented demand," PRA Executive Director
Gordon Balmer said.
"In a PRA member survey today of 1,200 sites across the UK
including motorway service areas, 52% of sites have reported
having both petrol and diesel in stock, 21% have either one
grade in stock and 27% are dry."
