According to the map the plane veered left to the station, a straight line off the runway would take it into heart of the freeway interchange.

Also, I would suspect the the phrase "fuel depot" is used liberally there. If not then that is the strangest fuel depot at an ariport I have ever seen. Looks more like office buildings. PLC in Calgary/Edmonton ect are exposed tanks that look more like a commercial fuel station for semis/farm equipment etc.
