And you, did you manage to fill your tank? Almost everywhere in France the same scenes are repeated: closed stations, endless queues, rising prices and motorists losing their patience. To help you and guide you, France 3 has created an interactive map that lists all petrol stations in the Montpellier region. By moving inland, you can also learn about the situation in other cities.
The map we offer below was derived from information on the price of fuel posted on the government website. Stations where neither diesel nor petrol is available are displayed in red. Otherwise, it is specified which type of fuel is available at the station.
By clicking on a point on the map it is possible to consult the prices charged. The data is updated every half hour, but may not accurately reflect the reality of the situation observed at the pump.
The government increased pressure on the unions and the management of the blocked refineries to negotiate late Monday, while nearly a third of the stations are still affected by the fuel shortage in France, and that the CGT has renewed the strike for Tuesday. .
Despite repeated calls from the government to negotiate wages and end the lockdowns, the CGT and TotalEnergies management failed to reach an agreement. The strike also continues in the two French refineries of Esso-ExxonMobil, after a meeting with the management defined as “inconclusive” by Christophe Aubert, central representative of the CGT union.
Faced with this impasse, Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne, who has just returned from a trip to Algiers, urgently gathered several ministers in Matignon in the evening.
“The government cannot let the country be blocked“, he commented at the end of Mrs. Borne’s entourage:”It will continue to take measures to facilitate the supply of the stations as it has been doing for several days.“.
Everyone must take responsibility. The government will take it.
“A wage disagreement does not justify blocking the country. Refusing to discuss means making the French victims of a lack of dialogue“, Elisabeth Borne insisted.
By 6pm on Monday, 29.4% of gas stations were in trouble nationwide (up from 29.7% by 3pm on Sunday), said Energy Transition Minister Agnès Pannier-Runacher.
Faced with the shortcomings, the caregiver unions (liberal nurses) complained on Monday evening “priority access“in all localities, in order to maintain home care. In Hérault, theThe prefecture of Hérault has banned the filling of canisters at service stations in the department since Tuesday 11 October 2022. In seven of them it has also introduced queues for priority vehicles.
President Emmanuel Macron himself on Monday invited the leadership of oil groups and trade unions to “the responsability“.
According to a participant at the meeting on Monday evening in Matignon, the scenario favored by the government would be that the negotiations undertaken at Esso-ExxonMobil encourage TotalEnergies to move towards confrontation in turn, seizing the pole extended by union appeals to negotiate. The blockages could then cease.
According to this source, no decision was taken on Monday evening on the measures that the executive could take in the event of continued blockades. “All decisions are potentially made quickly “he pointed out, however.
