  • Averages use unleaded (E10) and standard diesel (B7) prices at open forecourts, leaving out prices unchanged for over two weeks or far from every other forecourt. They count each forecourt once, not by how much fuel it sells.
  • Forecourts are placed in council areas from their postcode, using the ONS Postcode Directory.
