Gas prices are continuing to slowly decrease both locally as well as across the western Pennsylvania region as a whole over the past week.
According to AAA’s weekly gas price report, the average price for a gallon of regular, unleaded, self-serve gas in Butler, as of Monday, dropped by a penny to reach $3.71 per gallon.
The average gas price across western Pennsylvania as a whole decreased by two cents to settle at $3.76. The most affordable average price for gas in the area can be found in Brookville at $3.60, while the most expensive is in Mercer at $3.93.
The average national gas price increased by a nickel over the past week to reach $3.49. This is five cents less than a month ago and four cents less than one year ago. The price of oil rose slightly and demand is expected to increase with what could be a record number of travelers on the roads.
