This is where you can get petrol in and around Mansfield

Some garages are still awaiting the tankers although supplies of diesel and petrol do seem to be making their way to many forecourts across the Mansfield area.

The recent difficulties came after reports of UK wide HGV driver shortages, prompting many motorists to panic-buy fuel – leaving some Mansfield forecourts still struggling to replenish supplies.

The rush for motorists to stock up caused more pressure on the supply chain causing difficulties for many trying to get to work and for businesses.

Troops were being trained to help deliver the fuel, after Prime Minister Boris Johnson attempted to deal with the nationwide problems.

Today (Thursday) the Chad contacted garages across the Mansfield area to find out about the latest situation.

The Shell Garage Leeming Lane South, Mansfield Woodhouse said on Facebook of its petrol and diesel supplies, that it had “Got everything” whilst meanwhile at at the Mansfield Service Station, on Stockwell Gate, a delivery was expected tonight (Thursday).

A spokesperson told the Chad. “Our planned delivery is just running a bit late.”

At the Rosemary Street Service Station in Mansfield, the pumps were “still empty” but the garage said it was expecting a fuel delivery on Monday (October 4.)

A spokesperson said "our shop is still open 24 hours for everything else, but we have no fuel at the moment. It’s hopefully coming Monday, we are pushing for an earlier delivery, but hopefully we will have some fuel very soon.”
