Price of gas up nearly a dime

DEARBORN, MI— Gas prices in Michigan are up eight cents compared to last week.

AAA Michigan says drivers are now paying an average of $3.18 per gallon for regular unleaded. That’s four cents less than this time last month but still a $1.01 more than this time last year.

The most expensive gas price average is in the Marquette area, at $3.31. The least expensive gas price average is in Grand Rapids, at $3.13.

Motorists are paying an average of $48 for a full 15-gallon tank of gasoline. That’s a discount of about $3 from when prices were their highest last November.
