Wilton Gas Prices Slightly Above State Average as Connecticut Costs Remain Lower Than Year Ago

WILTON, CT — Regular gasoline prices in Connecticut have edged up slightly in the past week, with Wilton motorists generally paying a bit more at the pump than the statewide average but still less than prices seen a year ago, according to the latest figures from AAA.

As of the most recent reporting, the average price for a gallon of regular unleaded in Connecticut was about $2.90, up modestly from roughly $2.89 one week earlier and nearly unchanged from about a month prior. That current average remains below the approximately $3.09 per gallon motorists were paying around this time last year, indicating year-over-year relief for drivers statewide.

By contrast, data from the EIA show the average U.S. price for a gallon of regular gasoline has been near the high-$2 range, slightly lower than Connecticut’s current statewide average but also down from levels seen in the previous year. National figures have ticked upward modestly week over week and remain below year-ago prices, reflecting broader supply conditions across the country.

Locally in Wilton, pump prices tend to hover around or a bit above these state and national averages. Recent crowd-sourced price reports suggest motorists in town are paying near $3 per gallon at many service stations, slightly higher than Connecticut’s average but in line with regional trends.

Here’s a snapshot of recent regular gas prices at Wilton stations, with links to maps and current price listings:

• Shell – 210 Danbury Rd $3.00 gallon price
• Mobil – 46 Danbury Rd $3.00 gallon price
• Gulf – 287 Danbury Rd $3.05 gallon price
• Sunoco – 943 Danbury Rd $3.07 gallon price

Actual prices at individual pumps can vary day to day based on delivery schedules, competition and market conditions, but the current snapshot suggests Wilton prices are modestly above the Connecticut average and broadly align with U.S. trends. Drivers planning fill-ups in the coming days may want to check real-time price trackers for the best deals, particularly as winter demand and supply dynamics continue to influence retail gasoline costs.
