The authorities reported an increase in the working hours of gas stations in Astrakhan.

The working hours of federal network gas stations "Lukoil" and "Gazpromneft" in Astrakhan have increased by more than a third. At the same time, in the regions of the area, fuel is sold at these network gas stations for a maximum of six hours a day.

As reported by "Caucasian Knot", on August 17, the authorities announced that the fuel sale regime by even and odd days is being reintroduced, linked to the state registration numbers of vehicles. On August 25, the sales limit was set to 30 liters per person.

In Astrakhan today, cars with even numbers (ending in 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8) are being refueled, reported the governor of Astrakhan region Igor Babushkin on his Telegram channel.

He published a table with data on the working hours of gas stations in the regional center and other cities. In Astrakhan today, gas stations should work a total of 119 hours, some for 12 hours, and some for only two or four. This refers to the gas stations "Lukoil" and "Gazpromneft".

In the regions of the area, the gas stations of these networks work today for a maximum of six hours — the "Gazpromneft" gas station in the village of Tuluganovka in the Narimanov district, where only AI-92 is sold. On average, gas stations in the regions open for only three hours.

It should be noted that the data on the increase in the working hours of federal gas stations was published by the governor the day before, when cars with odd numbers were being refueled. At that time, 16 stations were operating in Astrakhan — their total working time was 111 hours.

On September 21, the total working time of city gas stations was 72 hours, on September 22 — 73 hours.
