Gas Prices Continue Climbing Across MI

Gas prices continued rising across Michigan on Monday morning, according to AAA.

The average price for a regular gallon of gas across Michigan was $3.60, two cents higher than last week and 63 cents higher than last month, according to AAA.

That means drivers across the state paid an average of $54 for a full 15-gallon tank of gasoline, according to AAA.

Gas prices were even higher in the metro Detroit area. Drivers in the region paid $3.65 for a regular gallon of gas Monday morning, 12 cents higher than last week and 67 cents higher than last month, according to AAA.

"Michigan motorists have seen pump prices rise over the past two weeks as crude oil costs continue climbing," AAA Spokesperson Adrienne Woodland said. "The good news is that while prices are still up, the pace of those increases has noticeably slowed in the past week."
