OVER the course of a month we’ve seen a levelling off in the price of petrol around the 13 stations in town.
Prices have dropped fractionally also, with a couple of exceptions, there is very little disparity between stations in terms of cost.
Out in front is Top in Caherslee at €1.23.8 per litre followed very closely by the other Top station in Clash – €1.23.9.
With a total nine stations recording only .1 of a cent difference in price between each other, the onus on motorists to shop around isn’t as important at the moment.
Tralee will get another petrol station in the near future as last week it was announced that Corrib Gas have the go-ahead to build a new facility on the site of the old John Mitchels football pitch on John Joe Sheehy Road.
