State gas prices are up over four dollars once again. The state average is up ten cents compared to last week.
AAA reports Michigan drivers are now paying an average of $4.04 per gallon for regular unleaded. This price is 4 cents less than this time last month but still $1.24 more than this time last year.
Motorists are paying an average of $60 for a full 15-gallon tank of gasoline; an increase of about $9 from when prices were their highest last November.
Adrienne Woodland, spokesperson for AAA-The Auto Club Group in Michigan says, quote, "Tight gasoline stocks along with volatility in the crude oil market has pushed Michigan gas prices above $4 a gallon for the first time in almost three weeks… adding, "Pump prices will likely continue to face upward pressure as oil prices remain above $100 per barrel."
The most expensive gas price averages can be found in Marquette, Jackson and Ann Arbor, with the least expensive averages found in Traverse City, Grand Rapids and Lansing.
