Salford

The cheapest unleaded in town currently starts near 136p per litre. The very top of the local range is set by a small number of expensive outliers, and most stations sit much closer together than the headline gap suggests.

Supermarket forecourts from Asda usually anchor the bottom of the local range. Supermarkets account for 6 of the 71 stations here, with branded and independent sites making up the remainder.

The low end of the market has recently been held by Texaco around Sandgate Service Station. Several of the busier sites sit along Ashton New Road and Princess Road, so you can check them against each other without leaving your usual route.

On average, unleaded here runs a little under the wider North West England figure. Diesel averages around 161p per litre across the stations we track in Salford.

The comparison covers stations up to roughly 8 km out, which keeps out-of-town supermarkets and bypass sites in the same view as the town centre. The cheapest station in Salford is not fixed; the low spot moves between forecourts through the week, so the current ordering matters more than habit.
