Petrol stations serve a multitude of purposes in the transport industry. The primary one is that they provide fuel like diesel, petrol and kerosene for vehicles or for domestic use. They also sell important car fluids like lubricants which tend to be on demand whenever cars need emergency maintenance services.
At a petrol station, you can also have your car washed, or your tyres inflated. Petrol stations also have convenience stores, such as pharmacies, fast food shops, and even small supermarkets. Many of them remain open round the clock in case you need to purchase something at night. If you live or work around Kitisuru, here are some petrol stations you could access.

Conclusion
Kitisuru itself is a residential suburb, and most properties in the area are people’s homes. That is why one may not find too many petrol stations within the Kitisuru neighborhood. However, there are more than enough petrol stations to choose from in the surrounding areas. All of them are a short drive away. Depending on the company, you can enjoy slashed prices during special occasions and holidays, especially if you have a loyalty card. Take advantage of these discounts and save money on your fuel costs. You can also access different branches of the same petrol station in case you are travelling in a different direction, or another neighbourhood. Petrol stations close to malls are great in terms of accessibility, or when you are running errands at the mall.
