DEARBORN, MI (WKZO AM/FM) – Gas prices in Michigan decreased 2 cents compared to a week ago. AAA Michigan says drivers are now paying an average of $3.29 per gallon for regular unleaded.
That price is 8 cents more than this time last month and $1.18 more than this time last year.
Motorists are paying an average of $49 for a full 15-gallon tank of gasoline; an increase of about $10 from when prices were their highest last January.
“Michigan motorists saw a slight decrease in pump prices, despite tightening stocks and an increase in demand,” said Adrienne Woodland, spokesperson, AAA-The Auto Club Group. “With crude oil prices remaining above $80 a barrel, motorists should expect to see elevated gas prices through this week.”
Compared to last week, Metro Detroit’s average daily gas price increased slightly. Metro Detroit’s current average is $3.32 per gallon. This price is 1 cent more than last week’s average and $1.22 more than this same time last year.
