Search any UK location to see nearby petrol and fuel stations alongside your planning and site data.
Updated: continuously from OpenStreetMap · Last checked by Maplify: July 2026
This layer maps petrol and fuel station locations around any site, sourced from OpenStreetMap and loaded live as you browse the map. Each station is plotted as a point with its name where available.
It gives a quick read on fuel infrastructure near a site, relevant to both highways screening and everyday amenity provision.
Petrol stations are relevant to highways and access assessments for nearby development, given vehicle movement and forecourt access considerations. They can also be a useful prompt to check the Contaminated Land layer, since current and former fuel storage sites carry a recognised risk of soil and groundwater contamination.
Petrol station marker
Location of a fuel station as recorded in OpenStreetMap.
Development near a petrol station may need to consider highways access, vehicle movement and forecourt sightlines as part of a transport assessment. Where a site was previously used, or sits adjacent to, fuel storage infrastructure, a contaminated land assessment is commonly required before consent is granted.
Review nearby petrol station locations for highways and access implications.
Check the Contaminated Land layer for the same site if it is near a current or former fuel station.
Commission a transport assessment where access or forecourt movements could affect the proposal.
Check the wider Commercial & Retail layer for the fuller amenity picture.

Petrol station checks are often run alongside these related layers.
What does the Petrol Stations layer show?
Petrol and fuel station locations, sourced from OpenStreetMap and loaded live for the visible map area.
Why do developers check nearby petrol stations?
Petrol stations can be relevant to highways and access assessments, and may also indicate historic contamination risk on adjacent or former filling station sites.
Does this layer show contaminated land risk?
No. Use the Contaminated Land layer for former or current fuel storage risk screening; this layer only maps current facility locations.
How current is the petrol stations data?
Data is sourced live from OpenStreetMap, a continuously updated crowd-sourced dataset, so most established stations are captured, though very recent closures may lag behind.
