In 2013 a new Sainsbury's petrol station opened here, replacing the independent Total station that used to stand outside the Sainsbury's car park. The superstore (off the photo to the left) is built into Crystal Palace's Selhurst Park ground, and the digital lettering in the opening-times sign sets out the changes to standard opening times that will be caused by a forthcoming football match (to avoid conflicts of traffic and crowds, the store closes during and around games).
