Fuel Prices On Motorways

EDM number 2485 in 2010-12, proposed by Julian Huppert on 28/11/2011.
Categorised under the topics of Oil, petrol and natural gas and Roads.

That this House believes that fuel prices on motorways are too high; notes that a recent survey by WhatCar? found that fuel prices on motorways are up to 7.4 per cent. higher than the national average; further believes that the disproportionate cost of fuel on motorways is in part a result of the lack of competition between filling stations and a lack of information for drivers about the cost of fuel; further believes that the Government should take action to prevent the continuation of this captive market; and calls on the Government to make information on petrol prices at nearby filling stations available to drivers while they are on the motorway.

This motion has been signed by a total of 32 MPs.
