PITTSBURGH — Bradford motorists are paying an average of $2.772 a gallon for unleaded, self-serve gasoline this week, according to the American Automobile Association Fuel Gauge Report.
Elsewhere across the region, the average price for gas stands at $2.711 a gallon, which is a decline of nearly three cents from last week, AAA officials said. Nationwide, the average price for gas is $2.670 a gallon.
AAA officials said last week ended a 27-day streak of lower gas prices, as prices instead rose consecutively for the past six days. Nationally, the average price per gallon increased by about 8 cents, week-to-week, with consumers in the Midwest seeing some of the largest increases across the country. Despite the increases, motorists are still paying 9 cents less than last month and about 79 cents less than this time last year.
