Drivers in Shropshire have seen some big prices increases in the last month.
Fuel prices rose in October, was huge increases in the cost of diesel
According to petrolprices.com, on Sunday afternoon the cheapest diesel price in the region was 181.7p. One month ago it was 169.9p. Price hikes began in the early part of October when oil producing group Opec+ agreed to cut production by two million barrels a day which led to a 7 per cent increase in oil prices. The weaker pound also made wholesale petrol and diesel more expensive.
“Those with diesel vehicles suffered most with 10p being added to the cost of a litre in what was the third worst monthly increase on record, but petrol car drivers also saw a 4p-a-litre increase across the country.
