      August 11, 2026 16:54 Society Nizhny Novgorod drivers are once again complaining about problems with gasoline. They are leaving messages on social media. In particular, one motorist reported queues at the "Lukoil" gas station on Komsomolskoye Highway and at the "Gazpromneft" station on "Vara." Meanwhile, at the gas stations on Fedoseenko Street, Yasnaya Street, and Heroes Avenue. Some Nizhny Novgorod residents are also complaining about the lack of AI-95. "It's almost nowhere to be found," wrote user Alexey. "On weekends, there was gasoline sometimes, sometimes not. I barely managed to refuel, and it wasn't even on my 'odd' day," shared reader Svetlana from NIA "Nizhny Novgorod." According to the Nizhny Novgorod resident, it was almost impossible to refuel on Saturday. In particular, there was no gasoline from early morning until night at the "Lukoil" gas station near "Okeanis." The motorist had to go to the gas station on Sunday morning. "There were queues at all the pumps. Not as bad as in July, of course, but still had to wait. On the plus side, no one complained that I came on my 'wrong' day," added the NIA interlocutor. The day before, the editorial office inquired with the regional Ministry of Energy whether the "odd-even" system was still in effect at gas stations. They responded positively. They also added that fuel sales via QR code are conducted only at one gas station in the Nizhny Novgorod region - in Vetluga. Recall that there is an interactive map available in the region showing fuel availability at gas stations. NIA "Nizhny Novgorod" has channels on Telegram and MAX.
