Austin Gas Prices Steady Over Past Week

Including the change in gas prices in Austin during the past week, prices are 13.6 cents lower than the same day one year ago and are 7.2 cents per gallon lower than a month ago. The national average has increased 4.5 cents per gallon during the last month and stands 6.7 cents per gallon lower than this day one year ago.

"The national average has picked up in the last week on the apparent start of refinery maintenance season. Refinery production has taken a hit in the last week as companies begin looking towards the summer driving season, utilizing this time of year for maintenance and any upgrades before gasoline demand races higher for the summer season,” said GasBuddy.com Senior Petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan
