Gas prices in metro Detroit dropped over the past week, according to the latest analysis from AAA Michigan.
The agency reports gas prices in metro Detroit dropped 3 cents to an average of $3.64 per gallon. That's $1.64 less than this time last year.
In Michigan, prices dropped a bit more – 7 cents to an average of $3.58 per gallon. That's 3 cents more than this time last month but still $1.60 less than this time last year.
AAA reports that there is lower gas demand and increasing supply which is helping limit pump prices.
"Michigan motorists are seeing a slight drop in gas prices to start the week," said Adrienne Woodland, spokesperson, AAA-The Auto Club Group. "If demand remains tepid, pump prices will likely fluctuate moderately through this week."
